Introduction:
The rapid integration of digital health tools into clinical practice presents new opportunities for supporting clinical reasoning. But doctors and nurses must learn how they can use digital health tools such as AI and telehealth to support clinical reasoning (CR). Our objectives were to investigate how and which digital tools have been integrated in medical and nursing CR education.
Methodology:
Rapid review of 46 studies about integrating digital health tools in medical and nursing CR education.
Results:
Most studies reported about Large Language Models, EHRs and Clinical Decision Support Systems integrated into CR education.
Discussion:
Digital tools are increasingly integrated into medical and nursing clinical reasoning education, yet the focus is limited to certain types of tools.
