VisualDx visual clinical decision support software

Primary care clinicians self-rate their visual recognition skills as being substandard, and yet 10-20% of office and clinic visits include at least one skin complaint. Extraneous tests, incorrect or delayed diagnosis, ineffective treatment and repeat visits negatively impact provider efficiency and patient satisfaction.

The VisualDx clinical decision support software system assists your clinicians in rapid and accurate diagnosis, therapy and clinical management of patients with a visual component to their presentation.

Health organizations such as HMOs, primary care practices and clinics, college and school health systems, employee health centers and correctional institutions all share a vested interest in providing the highest quality healthcare at the most affordable prices. VisualDx assists your clinicians by providing clinical decision support to ensure the right diagnosis the first time, helping:

Reduce costly referrals
Eliminate extraneous tests
Improve clinician efficiency
Increase patient satisfaction

A comprehensive, easy-to-use resource for
differential diagnosis
VisualDx is an advanced new approach to point-of-care decision making. By simply entering a patient’s findings, clinicians build a custom, pictorial differential diagnosis in seconds, drawn from thousands of medical photographs revealing the variation in presentation between as well as within diseases. In addition, VisualDx provides rapid access to handbook-length, actionable clinical information for diagnosis, testing, management and treatment of diseases.

VisualDx’s modular system helps your primary care providers improve care in the following areas:

Dermatology		Problem Areas		Public Health
Adult Dark skin Pediatric Neonate/infant		Fever and rash Drug eruptions International travel Oral lesions Acute respiratory infections		STDs Bioterrorism Infectious and emerging infectious disease (avian flu, SARS) Immunocompromised, HIV or AIDS

	Search thousands of medical photos, merged with clinical information, for an accurate diagnosis in seconds.

	A randomized and controlled university study found that VisualDx improves diagnostic accuracy 124%, compared to textbooks, after only five minutes of training.



	Underserved and rural populations often lack easy access to primary care clinicians, let alone specialists. VisualDx brings specialist-level information to your providers at the point-of-care and provides them with the visual and clinical information they need to accurately diagnose and treat patients with a visual component to their presentation.

	Visually diagnosable conditions can be more difficult to recognize in patients with dark skin. VisualDx’s comprehensive library of dark skin disease images addresses visually diagnosable disease in populations that, to date, have been largely underrepresented in atlases and texts.

	VisualDx reduces costs and makes more efficient use of resources when it is deployed as an adjunct to telemedicine at the point-of-care, remotely, or at both the forward and receiving ends.
