The Clinical Informatics Consult is an IRB approved project to study the use of routinely collected data on millions of individuals for providing better care. Given a specific clinical question, we provide a report with a descriptive summary of similar patients in Stanford’s clinical data warehouse, treatment choices made, and observed outcomes.
We have access to demographics, diagnoses, procedures, medications, laboratory values, clinical notes, mortality, and length of stay information for millions of patients. If you are in an uncertain clinical situation and wonder, “What happened to other patients like mine?”, we would love to help. To request a consult, please e-mail greenbutton@stanford.edu from your Stanford email account.
