NEW YORK, Sept. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Avo, a company empowering clinicians with point-of-care, decision-making software and evidence-based medicine, announced today the addition of the company's clinical decision support solution to the Epic App Market as a Blossom app, making it available to hospital systems nationwide. Use of standards-based APIs makes Avo seamlessly accessible and integrated into clinicians' usual workflows.

Avo Overview

Avo is now available for free in the App Market. Once implemented, Avo works with Epic, the largest Electronic Health Record vendor in the US.

Avo provides clinicians with instant, interactive access to evidence-based clinical guidelines and clinical pathways at the point-of-care. Randomized control trials and implementations have shown that Avo saves clinicians up to 54% of their time at the point of care when making clinical decisions, while improving outcomes and reducing costs [1].

Avo's Point-of-Care Application is available as a tab or a sidebar where relevant modules will be instantly available for use. Additional features under development include the automatic pulling of labs and vitals when relevant for a clinical decision, and the seamless suggestion of relevant orders and documentation for assessment and plan in real-time.

Once implemented, clinicians and hospitals can quickly and collaboratively build their own pathways and/or pull in guidelines from Avo's growing set of leading content partners using Avo's no-code content management system without needing hospital IT resources.

Avo's decision support library is available for use by clinicians and hospital partners. Leading content partners, such as the American Academy of Family Physicians, Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes, the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography, and Columbia Psychiatry, have made their expertise available as interactive modules on the Avo platform. The majority of these modules are available for free, underscoring Avo's mission to bridge the divide between evidence and practice.

In addition to using Avo through Epic, clinicians can use Avo on their web browser, on a mobile app, or on other EHR systems.
