Best Practice is an online decision support tool designed to help practitioners, patients, students and researchers find the best medical information and use it in the most effective way. It brings together the latest evidence, expert opinion, and guidelines on over 10,000 different diagnoses - enabling health professionals to find quick answers to important questions about diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and prevention. Essentially, it provides a reliable second opinion in an instant. The easy-to-use design also fits information around existing workflows, helping clinicians, nurses and pharmacists to make the best decisions for their patients, every time. Dr Rubin Minhas, Clinical Director for Best Practice said: 'We are delighted to see Best Practice being integrated into the Asklepios Hospital Hamburg Electronic Health Record system. Because Best Practice is built specifically for point-of-care use, it will give busy clinicians an immediate head-start on diagnosing and treating their patients.' Professor Dr. med Heinzpeter Moecke of Asklepios said 'The initiative to provide integrated evidence based clinical decision support at the point of care through Best Practice reflects Asklepios Kliniken's strategic mission to drive innovation and quality in health care to achieve the best possible clinical outcomes and highest standards of care for our patients.'
