Evidence and review
OncoBrain keeps source material, AI suggestions, the patient chart, and advisory drafts separate. That lets you see what supports a statement and decide what belongs in the chart.
What each item means
| You see | It means | What to do next |
|---|---|---|
| Source | The original uploaded or pasted record, or a record from a connected electronic health record (EHR) or health information exchange (HIE). | Open it when the wording, date, or context matters. |
| Candidate finding | An extraction proposal with a link back to its source. It is not in the chart. | Accept, edit, or reject it in Extraction review. |
| Patient chart | Findings committed from Extraction review or entered directly by a clinician. | Saving an edit confirms that fact. Other unconfirmed changes still need review. |
| Saved | The current chart matches its latest confirmed snapshot. | Use it as the reviewed patient-state context for new drafts. |
| Draft | AI-generated, cited advisory material for a particular set of case inputs. | Check the evidence, gaps, and currency before acting. |
| Marked reviewed | An acknowledgment of an eligible artifact in this workspace. | It is not a signature or a clinical decision. |
A source can inform a draft before its findings are accepted into the chart. A citation helps you find the supporting passage; it does not prove that the statement is correct, complete, or applicable.
AI proposes findings; clinician review writes the chart. A source can support a cited draft before becoming a chart fact. Explore the source links.
Review a finding
- In Extraction review, select Prepare findings after adding sources.
- Open the evidence for a proposed finding and compare it with the original record.
- Choose Accept, Edit, or Reject for each proposal. These choices remain staged until you commit the review.
- Select Add and confirm to add the reviewed findings and save a confirmed chart snapshot.
- Open Patient chart to verify the current record. Saving a direct edit confirms that fact alongside the previously confirmed facts. If other changes remain unconfirmed, review them and use Confirm changes.
For example, if a proposal says calcium is 10.8 mg/dL and the report says 10.6 mg/dL, edit the proposal to 10.6 mg/dL before committing it. The source, original proposal, clinician correction, and later chart state remain distinguishable.
Use drafts safely
A draft preserves the case material available when it was generated. New sources, chart changes, guidance updates, or changed trial records can make a result Needs refresh. Generate an updated draft before relying on a stale result.
Before using a consequential draft:
- Check the cited passages and the original source when needed.
- Look for missing, conflicting, or partially readable information.
- Confirm that the chart reflects the facts you want the draft to use.
- Update a draft that is marked Needs refresh.
- Review the relevant clinician-controlled surface before treating it as current: a treatment working selection, trial pursuit decision, referral disposition, or reviewed artifact.
Boundaries that matter
| OncoBrain can help with | It does not do |
|---|---|
| Locate evidence and preserve its source link | Make a diagnosis or establish patient truth |
| Propose findings and draft case material | Replace clinical judgment |
| Record reviewed chart facts and planning choices | Prescribe, order, schedule, or administer treatment |
| Prepare referral, treatment, trial, and summary material | Confirm formal trial eligibility, enrollment, or referral acceptance |
| Export an advisory document | Sign a note or transmit it to an EHR |
