Evidence-aligned diabetes diagnosis
Patient: Mr. Aaron Jamie, 52y
Setting: Primary Care Outpatient Clinic. Medical History: Prediabetes, obesity (BMI 33), mild intermittent asthma, borderline hypertension. Reason for Visits: Routine management, new symptoms, and chronic disease risk assessment.
Mr. Jamie reports new fatigue, increased thirst, and waking twice nightly to urinate. His last hemoglobin A1c (6 months ago) was 6.0%. The PCP/GP must review labs, vitals, weight trends, and medications spread across several prior visits which is time-consuming and prone to oversight.
Query: "Extract the last 12 months of labs, weight, vitals, and medication adherence. Compare patterns to ADA criteria and determine whether this presentation meets diagnostic thresholds for diabetes."
| Parameter | Trend | Insight |
|---|---|---|
| A1c | 5.7% → 6.0% → 6.6% | Meets ADA criteria (≥ 6.5%) |
| Fasting Glucose | 112 → 124 → 136 mg/dL | Diagnostic range |
| Weight | 208 → 214 → 219 lbs | Progressive weight gain |
Insight: Patient now meets ADA diagnostic criteria for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus based on A1c 6.6% and fasting glucose 136 mg/dL. Symptom profile supports diagnosis.
Mr. Jamie presents with mild wheezing and asks for a refill of his albuterol inhaler. He also recently started a new medication from urgent care (unknown to the PCP/GP). Instead of manually searching multiple drug databases, the physician uses Pulse.
Query: "Extract all active medications from the past 90 days, identify interactions with beta-agonist therapy, and provide a safety recommendation for albuterol refill."
Insight: Patient is safe for Albuterol refill. Note: Metoprolol may reduce bronchodilator response; consider reassessing need for beta blocker or switching to a more selective agent if asthma control worsens.
Mr. Jamie requests a refill for his blood pressure medication during a busy afternoon clinic. The provider must verify last refill date, recent BP control, any missed appointments, and most recent renal function labs. This normally requires checking 3–4 different EMR sections.
Query: "Is it safe to refill his lisinopril today? Show last refill date, creatinine/potassium values, and any missed follow-up appointments."
Insight: Safe to refill lisinopril today. Labs and BP stable. No contraindications or missed follow-ups.
Automating routine checks like diabetes screening and refill safety frees up significant time for patient interaction.
Pulse acts as a second pair of eyes, catching interactions between drugs prescribed by different providers (e.g., Urgent Care vs PCP).
Instant comparison against ADA and other guidelines ensures every diagnosis is backed by the latest clinical standards.
