| Abstract: | We designed a computer program to make diagnostic suggestions in cases of acute azotemia. The performance of the program was tested in a retrospective manner on 63 patients with acute azotemia. The program correctly identified 90 of 94 diagnoses and made 20 false positive diagnostic suggestions. A revised version of the program correctly identified 94 of 94 diagnoses and made 4 false negative suggestions. The justification for this kind of diagnostic aid is discussed. |
