description Developing countries rarely have enough physicians to follow the traditional diagnostic process found in wealthier nations. Initial diagnoses often must be made by non-physician personnel. In order to enhance the quality of these diagnoses, we have built an expert decision-support system for triaging childhood fever cases for malaria, measles, and acute respiratory infections. The user is guided through a series of questions that produces clinical care guidelines tailored to the patient's condition.
