Study protocol for a prospective, double-blinded, observational study investigating the diagnostic accuracy of an app-based diagnostic health care application in an emergency room setting: the eRadaR trial
Introduction Occurrence of inaccurate or delayed diagnoses is a significant concern in patient care, particularly in emergency medicine, where decision making is often constrained by high throughput and inaccurate admission diagnoses. Artificial intelligence-based diagnostic decision support system...
