Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) is an IT system used in health sector to support health professionals in making decisions. It is used pre-diagnosis, during diagnosis or post diagnosis for identifying connections between patient’s present data and past medical history. With it, clinicians can analyze clinical data and diagnose various diseases. CDSS can reduce mistakes in medication administration, encourage practice standardization, and reduce duplication or unnecessary performance of diagnostic tests. When neatly integrated into an electronic health record platform, CDSS can facilitate evidence-based clinical decisions. Built on a backbone of algorithms, rules and alerts, CDSS is a cornerstone of patient safety, healthcare quality, and cost-effective care. Today, CDSS is very useful and draws more and more attention in the world. But CDSS is largely limited to prescriptions, laboratory tests and treatment protocols. There is a large room for improvement.
