The origin
Built from
clinical practice.
RX Decision grew from Denis Medvedev’s work in clinical pharmacology and antimicrobial stewardship: translating clinical guidance into decisions for individual patients.
An earlier Telegram-based decision-support system was a first step in making that logic explicit. RX Decision takes the work forward, with sources, reasoning and the limits of each recommendation available for review.
