  • Conducting an initial evaluation involving resident physicians.

    • Main Results:

    • Residents expressed a preference for using the ProtoVIEW system.
    • System usage correlated with a more uniform working strategy among physicians.
    • The system successfully provided protocol information for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

    Conclusions:

    • The ProtoVIEW system is a viable tool for delivering automated protocol information.
    • Automated protocols can positively influence physician decision-making and standardize practice.
    • Further research is warranted to explore the broader impact of such systems in healthcare.
