Evaluation of a Clinical Decision Support System for Fungal Infections

Evaluation of a Clinical Decision Support System for the Treatment of Invasive Fungal Infections

Invasive fungal infections are serious and frequent diseases in our hospitals, especially in intensive care units. In accordance with the institutional recommendations, it is necessary to have a clinical decision support system to support the clinicians in a rapid and optimal prescription of antifungals for invasive fungal diseases. This clinical decision support system will benefit patients but also clinicians who will gain in medical efficiency. It will also have an ethical dimension since it will guarantee optimal antifungal treatments for all patients. The purpose of the research is to define the percentage of concordance between the medical prescription and the recommendation of the clinical decision support system.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients receiving antifungal therapy for the treatment of invasive fungal disease

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients not receiving antifungal therapy for the treatment of invasive fungal disease
