Diagnostic Test Calculators
Essential Evidence Plus’ 2,000 Diagnostic Test Calculators help clinicians choose the best diagnostic test and interpret the test results. The tool is divided into 450 symptom/disease pairings and describes key characteristics of the test in question. It can also outline the probability of disease before conducting the test as well as after the results have been determined. Clinicians can tailor test result interpretations based on the details of the clinical circumstance.
Example of Use: The Diagnostic Test Calculators answers hundreds of questions such as: What is the best test to rule out renal artery stenosis? What is the likelihood to trichomonal infection in women with trichomonas on pap smear? What is the 10-year mortality risk for a patient who smokes and has hypertension?
