Abstract
Decision rules help physicians make more accurate predictions about diagnosis, prognosis, and response to treatment. In this article, guidelines for finding decision rules are outlined. A mnemonic is presented (Pre-Dic- TiVe) that assists physicians in evaluation of decision rules for clinical practice. A survey of decision rules for primary care physicians is also presented.
