DISCLAIMER
IN PLAIN ENGLISH
Our prediction models and calculators are built as Decision Support Tools to help doctors and researchers. BUT, doctors and researchers spend years of their life to study and learn toward their common goal: Treating patients.
Decisions regarding treatment of patients should be based on knowledge of physicians and based on evidence-based references only.
So, double-check your work, and trust your clinical judgment over a number or the results presented here . If the Glasgow Coma Scale comes out 14/15, but the patient’s obtunded, which do you think is right? Our tools are not a replacement for experienced clinical judgment. In other words, If you think the patient needs a test or a specific treatment, do the test and prescribe that specific treatment ! Don't not do something a patient needs just because a score tells you something.
Neurodiction cannot and will not be held legally, financially, or medically responsible for decisions made using its calculators, equations, content, and algorithms, and is for the use of medical professionals and academic research community only.
