Decision Making: Traditional Method01:14

Decision Making: Traditional Method

4.4K
The process of hypothesis testing based on the traditional method includes calculating the critical value, testing the value of the test statistic using the sample data, and interpreting these values.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is decided based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to this claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses, out of which a null hypothesis would be a...

Decision Making01:20

Decision Making

1.2K
Decision-making is a fundamental cognitive process that involves evaluating alternatives and selecting among them. This process can range from simple choices, such as deciding what to wear, to complex decisions, like choosing a major in college or a career path. The complexity of the decision often dictates the approach we use, which can be broadly categorized into two types: automatic and controlled decision-making.
Automatic decision-making is fast, intuitive, and relies on gut feelings...

Decision Making: P-value Method

5.8K
The process of hypothesis testing based on the P-value method includes calculating the P- value using the sample data and interpreting it.
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim  is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses:  a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...

Statistical Analysis System (SAS)01:14

Statistical Analysis System (SAS)

1.3K
SAS, short for Statistical Analysis System, is a powerful data analysis, management, and visualization tool. Developed by the SAS Institute in the early 1970s, SAS has evolved into a comprehensive software suite used across various industries for statistical analysis, business intelligence, and predictive modeling.
Applications: SAS finds applications in numerous fields, including healthcare for clinical trial analysis, finance for risk assessment, marketing for customer data analysis, and...

Reason and Intuition

5.9K
The human brain processes information for decision-making using one of two routes: an intuitive system and a rational system (Epstein, 1994; popularized by Kahneman, 2011 as System 1 and System 2, respectively). The intuitive system is quick, impulsive, and operates with minimal effort, relying on emotions or habits to provide cues for what to do next, while the rational system is logical, analytical, deliberate, and methodical. Research in neuropsychology suggests that the...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Clinical Decision Support
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Decision support systems (DSS) are extensions of electronic health records (EHR) or electronic patient records (EPR).
  • They assist healthcare professionals in accessing patient information and evidence-based guidance.
  • DSS are integral to modern clinical decision-making processes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the benefits and limitations of decision-support technology in healthcare.
  • To highlight the growing importance of health information technology systems.
  • To explore how computerised systems aid in clinical decision making.

Main Methods:

  • Review of decision support system functionalities within EHR/EPR.
  • Analysis of computerised systems matching patient data to knowledge bases.
  • Discussion of paper-based versus computerised decision support approaches.

Main Results:

  • Computerised DSS offer rapid processing of patient-specific information.
  • These systems generate tailored assessments and treatment recommendations.
  • They match patient characteristics with decision rules and algorithms.

Conclusions:

  • Decision support technology is crucial for effective healthcare delivery.
  • Computerised DSS offer significant advantages over paper-based methods.
