DUK-C is designed for educational purposes and clinical decision support only. It does not provide medical advice and is not a substitute for professional clinical judgment.
Purpose and Intended Use
DUK-C (Do U Know Clinician) is a clinical reference tool that provides guideline-based educational content, treatment protocols, clinical decision support tools, medical calculators, and lab reference ranges. The App is designed to assist licensed healthcare professionals in accessing clinical reference information quickly and efficiently.
Not Medical Advice
The information provided through DUK-C does not constitute medical advice, professional diagnosis, or treatment recommendations for any individual patient. The content is general in nature and is derived from published clinical guidelines and medical references. It should not be used as a sole basis for clinical decision-making.
Professional Judgment Required
All clinical decisions should be made by qualified healthcare professionals based on their own assessment of individual patient circumstances, including but not limited to patient history, presentation, comorbidities, allergies, and current medications. DUK-C content should be used as a supplementary reference alongside institutional protocols, primary guideline documents, and professional clinical judgment.
Content Accuracy and Currency
While we make every effort to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of the information in DUK-C, medical knowledge and clinical guidelines are continuously evolving. There may be updates, revisions, or new evidence published after the content was last reviewed. Users should always verify critical clinical information through primary sources and up-to-date guideline publications.
No Warranty
DUK-C and its content are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be error-free or uninterrupted.
Limitation of Liability
Under no circumstances shall DUK-C, its developers, contributors, or affiliates be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages arising from or related to the use of the App or reliance on its content, including but not limited to damages arising from clinical decisions, patient outcomes, or professional actions taken based on information provided through the App.
Emergency Situations
DUK-C is not designed for use in emergency situations as a primary decision-making tool. In medical emergencies, always follow your institution's emergency protocols and contact appropriate emergency services immediately. The App should only be used as a supplementary reference.
No Doctor-Patient Relationship
Use of DUK-C does not create a doctor-patient relationship between the user and DUK-C or any of its contributors. The App is a reference tool, not a healthcare provider.
