Deontics
Technology
Our highly sophisticated artificial intelligence (Ai) platform and applications can be used in any clinical environment (primary, secondary or tertiary care), bringing advanced clinical compliance benefits and ROI.
Next-generation clinical support systems that improve care and drive efficient outcomes.
Cognitive computing is one of many branches of artificial intelligence and Deontics is a pioneer in this area, focusing on healthcare. We look at how we humans weigh up evidence and make decisions, formalise the process and assist with machines. So, why do we need cognitive clinical decision support systems (CDSS) and adaptive clinical pathways? Standard CDSS systems built with “if-then” rules engines and decision trees cannot deal with uncertainty or complex non-linear disease management. They are not equipped to capture domain expertise in a knowledge
framework that is dynamic and flexible and allows for situationally-adaptive execution. Deontics has solved these problems by developing our prize-winning PROforma clinical logic model – utilising cognitive principles and relying primarily on argumentation rather than ‘ if-then’ logic – to create a clinically effective “sat nav” for the physician, dynamically guiding the clinical team and patient around management decisions.
