Abstract:
QUICK (QUick Index to Caduceus Knowledge), is a prototypical user-friendly access system which adapts the INTERNIST-1/CADUCEUS knowledge base for use as an electronic textbook of medicine. The QUICK program can be used both as a diagnostic aid and a teaching tool in the field of internal medicine. A preliminary evaluation of a prototypical version of QUICK was conducted in order to identify its strengths and weaknesses. QUICK was made available to the medical housestaff at three Pittsburgh area teaching hospitals for a period of 2 months. Most users felt QUICK was educational and wanted future access to the system. An examination of log files revealed the users' most frequently encountered difficulties. Using the INTERNIST-I knowledge base as an electronic textbook expands the project's intended audience by providing clinical support for a broad group of diagnostic problems.
