There is too much information to be able to manage or digest. 2

4 What are clinical decision support systems? UpToDate is the premier evidence-based clinical decision support system. For over 20 years clinicians have trusted UpToDate to answer their clinical questions at the point of care. UpToDate s team of over 6000 top-expert authors from 50 countries synthesize the most recent medical information into evidence-based and actionable recommendations that clinicians trust to make the right patient management decisions during the consultation. This helps doctors to: Answer rapidly and effectively to their clinical questions. Change doctor s decisions Save doctors time Advance medical education Improve the quality of care 3
