Medical publisher BMJ Group and Isabel Healthcare have introduced Isabel with Best Practice, a diagnosis and treatment decision aid that combines the strengths of both companies’ existing systems to help clinicians diagnose and treat faster and more accurately at the point of care.
Under the partnership, Isabel integrated its industry-leading diagnosis decision aid with BMJ Group’s Best Practice clinical content. Isabel with Best Practice will enable doctors and nurse practitioners to make more informed and faster diagnostic and treatment decisions. Isabel with Best Practice claims to be the only diagnosis decision aid exclusively endorsed by BMJ Group and the only solution of its type that fully integrates with electronic health records.
Isabel with Best Practice capitalises on the unique ability of Isabel to produce a differential list using multiple clinical features with BMJ Group’s Best Practice’s easy to use evidence based disease monographs. When clinicians enter a patient’s signs and symptoms, Isabel with Best Practice generates a checklist of potential diagnoses while flagging high-risk ‘Don’t Miss’ diagnoses.
After a doctor selects a diagnosis, they are taken straight through to the BMJ Group’s Best Practice monographs where they are able to rapidly access information on other important symptoms and 1st and 2nd line tests to help with pinpointing the diagnosis and best practice and guidelines on treatment from the world famous BMJ Evidence Centre.
This next generation product is currently available and will be on display at the upcoming 2012 HIMSS conference in Las Vegas, NV in the Isabel booth 13247 kiosk 7.
