Abstract

This naturalistic study identifies and describes strategies for clinical problem solving in situations of uncertainty, from observations of patient/family visits in a family health center. Judgment strategies were described for four types of uncertainty: information, diagnosis, treatment, and patient response that roughly correspond to the phases of assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of the clinical problem-solving process. The study contributes to increased understanding of the practical (experiential) knowledge involved in clinical judgment.
