Clinical decision-making is a complex process that is reliant on accurate and timely information. Clinicians are dependent (or should be dependent) on massive amounts of information and knowledge to make decisions that are in the best interest of the patient.

One particular class of IT that the medical community is showing increased interest in is clinical decision support systems (CDSSs).
