Best Practice with Comorbidities Manager : Treat the whole patient
One in three adults suffer from multiple chronic conditions 1 This poses a significant problem for clinicians and medical students around the world. Clinical guidelines currently only focus on a single condition. To close this gap in clinical knowledge, BMJ added a comorbidities algorithm to BMJ Best Practice . Healthcare professionals are prompted to add patient comorbidities when accessing treatment information. The comorbidities manager then produces a plan tailored to the unique needs of the patient.
BMJ Best Practice is the ONLY clinical decision support tool with a comorbidities manager When comorbidities are considered in the acute setting, patients receive optimal care, leading to better clinical outcomes and shortened lengths of stay. For more information, including videos of the tool in action, visit bestpractice.bmj.com/info/us/comorbidities Interested in a demonstration?
