Open Evidence is a medical search platform that has grown to support over 25% of US practicing physicians as monthly active users, with many using it daily for critical information.

I received a note from Dr. Susan Wolver, an internal medicine physician, who shared how Open Evidence helped her during a medical emergency on a flight by providing crucial information about a patient's immunocompromised status.

Dr. Wolver used Open Evidence to determine the incubation period for chickenpox, which is essential for diagnosing the patient who developed a rash during the flight.

Open Evidence searches trusted medical literature and references, including the CDC yellow book, to provide reliable answers for physicians in critical situations, and offers a treatment plan based on recent literature, indicating that while urgency exists for administering drugs, immediate action isn't critical, allowing the flight to continue safely.

The patient, a 63-year-old man with prostate cancer, faced serious risks from chickenpox due to his immunocompromised condition, highlighting the importance of accurate medical information in emergencies.

Every patient is unique, with their own comorbidities and context, making it challenging for doctors to manage all necessary information. Open Evidence serves as a supportive tool for physicians to enhance their decision-making.

Open Evidence is currently processing numerous patient cases every second across the globe, demonstrating its widespread application in real-time medical decision-making.

Open Evidence has the opportunity to aggregate medical knowledge from millions of physicians worldwide, encoding and improving care by leveraging distributed clinical wisdom.

For the first time, Open Evidence is enhancing answers with the collective clinical wisdom of top gastrointestinal doctors, leading to improved patient care outcomes.
