EBMeDS

The Evidence-Based Medicine electronic Decision Support (EBMeDS) system brings evidence into practice by means of context-sensitive guidance at the point of care.

EBMeDS receives structured patient data from electronic patient records (EPRs) and returns reminders, therapeutic suggestions and diagnosis-specific links to guidelines. It can also be used to canalize patient data to electronic forms and calculators. In addition to real-time use, the EBMeDS decision support rules can also be run in patient populations ("virtual health checks").

EBMeDS is a platform-independent service, which can be integrated into in any EPR containing structured patient data. It is based on a simple but efficient technology, and both installing and updating the system is easy.

The process for creating the EBMeDS clinical decision support content is the first in the world to receive NHS accreditation. Read more about the accreditation.
