An application software program intended to facilitate clinical management decisions by receiving structured patient data from electronic health records and/or manually-entered information (e.g., demographics, diagnostic, laboratory results) and returning clinical care information (e.g., reports, pedigree diagrams, reminders, suggestions, and/or links to guidelines) to a healthcare professional responsible for patient care. Otherwise known as clinical decision support (CDS) software, it may be a locally-installed program, web-based, or mobile application. It is not primarily intended to manage diagnostic/patient images.
