How does the symptom checker feature work?

Sanzu's symptom checker is an interactive tool designed to assist in identifying potential conditions or ailments based on inputted symptoms. Users input symptoms they or their clients are experiencing, and the checker provides a list of potential diagnoses or conditions. It's essential to remember that the symptom checker is not a definitive diagnostic tool but rather a guiding resource.

How do I use the symptom checker with a client?

Ask your client to navigate to the 'Symptom Checker' section within their Sanzu app. Prompt your client to describe their symptoms, and input these into the checker. After analysing, it will generate potential conditions which can be discussed further with your client.

How accurate is the symptom checker?

While the symptom checker is an accurate and valuable tool, it's designed to provide potential conditions based on given symptoms and should not replace professional judgement or diagnosis. It's always important to use clinical experience and further assessments to arrive at an accurate diagnosis.

Can a client use the symptom checker by themselves?

Yes, they can use it independently. However, clients are reminded that the tool is for guidance only and should seek professional advice for definitive help.

Can I review the results of a client's symptom checker?

Yes, if a client has used the symptom checker and shared the results, you should be able to review them within their profile or through a shared link on Sanzu.

How often is the symptom checker updated with new information?

The Symptom Checker is updated frequently by our partners and the experts at Mediktor.

Can I refer back to the symptom checker results in my treatment notes?

Certainly. If the results from the symptom checker have been shared by a client, you can reference them when documenting treatment notes to provide context or record initial symptom analyses.
