Abstract
DecisionNET is a proposed remote database/wide-area computer network that should cultivate quantitative approaches to medicine by providing rapid access to medical facts, literature citations, decision models, and commentary of specific use to those involved with quantitative clinical decision making. Increasing accessibility to data and providing a forum for exchange of ideas should prove to be a significant asset to clinicians, either as modelers or as clients. Further work will address specific database implementation, development of a query engine, and coordination of the communications infrastructure. DecisionNET provides a unique model for the growth and maintenance of other medical knowledge bases.Keywords
