Supported protocols

This CDSS service is able to support multiple protocols at the same time. The user can select the protocol to use at the time of screening. Currently we support the following protocols

COVID19Protocol1

The symptoms used in this protocol has been taken from the version of IAF protocol shared by Dr. Lavanian Dorairaj. The scores for each of the symptoms have been derived by Manick Rajendran’s team of doctors using independent studies from across the world.

The details of the scoring used in the current protocol are available in this google sheet. The proposed sheet includes more factors that could be considered to enhance this protocol.

DHIndia

This protocol has been designed by a panel doctors under DHIndia association and led by Infection diseases specialist Dr. Rakesh. The details of the symptoms, commodities and exposure used in this protocol are available in this google sheet.
