Technology Blog #1: Best website for Medical Professional's and how it's helpful for healthcare students
To start off with this first technology blog, even though I am an undergraduate student, I am looking toward the future and want to become a Physician Assistant. Within medicine, there is a lot of information to be memorized, information such as symptoms, numbers, and different risks. Occasionally when it comes to complicated cases and assessment risks, we can tend to forget or even overassume things. This is where MDCalc comes into play, It is a website that's specifically for medical professionals to help out with calculations, scores, and assessment risks using the latest information ranging out to nearly every specialty to mediate the best clinical decision and a way to improve the care of patients. Yet, it is not for the use of patients, as it can be deemed harmful as many patients can be misinformed and have negative outlooks on minor issues.
This website is a major help in the medical field for physicians, nurses, EMTs, physician assistants, and even healthcare students. It's an invaluable tool that focuses the provider's time on the treatment of patients and not wasting time on memorizing and correctly recalling all the vast information. This technology makes jobs easier giving patients the correct treatments they need in a much quicker manner and improving efficiency. MDCalc covers up to 35+ medical specialties and it can be effortlessly searched with a 'Google-like' search function. Just simply input your specification into the app and it will give you the formulas you need including advice, evidence, and even management tips to help make the best decisions.
Healthcare is troubling profession to advocate all your time into. It is constantly changing day by day with what medicines are created and how they are used. The website MDCalc that you mentioned seems to make everything a lot easier for healthcare workers with it providing information that would take forever. It simplifies the information that has to be looked upon into one app!
