Description

Nicola Campoamor and four co-authors study why doctors follow or ignore a clot risk tool's advice in a 2026 paper. The tool scores hospital patients for vein clot risk and suggests preventive treatment, but doctors adhere to its advice at varied rates. The team join survey answers with real adherence data for hospital doctors who used the tool often.

Most doctors could not state their own adherence rate correctly. Doctors with high adherence valued the tool for boosting confidence and cutting overtreatment. Doctors with low adherence more often said key risk factors were missing, the tool broke their workflow, or they used it only because policy required it. The authors urge designs that match doctor priorities.
