Abstract
Diagnostic error is a significant category within preventable patient harm, and it takes many years of effort to develop proficiency in diagnostic reasoning. One of the key challenges medical schools must address is preparing students for the complexity, uncertainty and clinical responsibility in going from student to doctor. Recognising the importance of both cognitive and systems-related factors in diagnostic accuracy, we designed the QUID Prompt (Questions to Use for Improving Diagnosis) for students to refer to at the bedside. This set of questions prompts careful consideration, analysis, and signposting of decision-making processes, to assist students in transitioning from medical school to the real-world of work and achieving diagnostic excellence in clinical settings.
