What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study

Summary

This study looks at whether giving doctors an artificial intelligence (AI) tool during telemedicine appointments helps them diagnose patients more accurately. About 180 primary care doctors in El Salvador will take part. Half will have the AI assistant turned on, and half will not, so researchers can compare the accuracy of their diagnoses.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
