History of Clinical DecisionSupport Systems
Learning Objectives• Describe various types and structures of clinical decision support (CDS)
systems• Discuss the evolution of clinical decision support from expert system
research• Discuss the changes in focus of clinical decision support from the 1980s to
the present• Discuss the change in architecture and mode of access of clinical decision
support systems from the 1980s to the present• Describe some of the early clinical decision support systems• Discuss the historical challenges in implementing CDS
