Medicine is advancing faster than ever. Every week, thousands of new studies are
published, each adding to the growing body of medical knowledge.
Yet, an average doctor has just five minutes with each patient. In that short time, it’s
nearly impossible to process such vast amounts of information, recall every guideline and make confident, life-saving decisions.
This creates a critical gap between available evidence and clinical practice. Many decisions end up relying more on memory and intuition than on the latest, most relevant research.
The result?
Delayed diagnoses
Suboptimal treatments
Avoidable complications for patients
In India, the challenge is even greater!!!
Low doctor-patient ratio - 1:1456 (far below WHO standards).
Limited access to premium medical database in rural areas.
Unique disease patterns in urban areas not well-represented in Western literature.
Indian healthcare professionals require reliable tools that can quickly integrate relevant evidence into local patient contexts.
The knowledge Lifecycle and Its Breakdown
Ideally, medical knowledge should move through a cycle:
Genesis — new research is created.
Propagation — findings are shared widely.
Implementation — doctors apply insights in practice.
Feedback — outcomes inform future improvements.
But this cycle often breaks. Research stays locked in journals. Practical insights rarely flow back into the system. And valuable evidence doesn’t reach the point of care.
From Intuition to AI-Powered Decision Support
The future of clinical decision-making lies in shifting from intuition alone to AI-powered support systems that strengthen doctors’ judgment.
These tools don’t replace clinicians. Instead, they:
Highlight the most relevant evidence for each patient.
Bring structure and clarity into daily practice.
Support confident, evidence-based decisions.
Early adopters are already seeing 23% improvement in diagnostic accuracy and 40% reduction in time spent researching treatment options.
