Summary
This study tested whether a computer tool that gives real-time feedback can help community health workers in Nigeria improve their patient care decisions. Over 490 patients were seen by a health worker who used the tool, then by a fully trained doctor. Researchers compared the health workers' treatment plans before and after receiving computer advice to see if the advice reduced errors.

- Active substance
- Large Language Model (LLM) clinical decision support tool
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a low-cost way to improve care quality in clinics with limited resources.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study in one country, so results may not apply elsewhere. The tool only gives advice; final decisions are made by doctors, so impact may be limited.
