Knowledge-based, computerized, patient clinical decision support system for perioperative pain, nausea and constipation management: a clinical feasibility study
Authors' conclusion
The knowledge-based, patient CDSS we developed was feasible at providing recommendations for the treatment of pain, PONV and constipation in a perioperative clinical setting.
