NCT ID NCT05952193
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether the POSOS app helps emergency doctors detect drug-induced harm (iatrogenesis) in simulated patient cases. 85 doctors were randomly assigned to use the app or not, and their answers were compared. The goal is to see if the app improves accuracy and speed in identifying medication-related issues.

- Active substance
- POSOS app (artificial intelligence tool for medical information search)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that the POSOS app helps doctors spot drug-related problems faster and more accurately in emergency settings.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed simulation study with only 85 participants. Real-world results may differ, and the app may not improve detection in actual emergency rooms.
