CDS Hooks

CDS Hooks is a technology that enables healthcare applications to share information and alerts at the right moment during patient care. It works by sending notifications to electronic health record (EHR) systems, prompting them to display relevant clinical decision support recommendations, such as drug interactions or treatment suggestions. This helps healthcare providers make informed decisions quickly, enhancing patient safety and improving care quality. Essentially, CDS Hooks acts as a bridge between different healthcare tools, ensuring that crucial information is available when needed, all while fitting seamlessly into the existing workflow of healthcare professionals.
