Description
Shenvi and a large informatics team describe in 2026 a cloud-hosted decision support system. It helps clinicians treat gonorrhea, a sexually transmitted infection, and offer HIV screening at the point of care. Guidelines change quickly as drug resistance spreads.
Built with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the system writes its rules in a standard health data language. It delivers alerts through a standard hook protocol inside electronic health records. It flags prescriptions that use the wrong drug or dose for a patient's weight and allergies, suggests the correct regimen, and prompts HIV testing when relevant. The system went live at two academic medical centers and ran a three-month pilot in emergency and urgent care settings. The pilot proved the shared, standards-based approach can work despite workflow and data quality problems.
