What It Is

[i]ClinicalGuidelines is a clinical protocol and decision-algorithm platform for healthcare institutions, developed by Brainnects LTDA. Its core goal is to turn clinical guidelines and scientific evidence into structured, explainable, and publishable in-house workflows. It is designed for hospitals and medical professionals, supporting the creation of healthcare decision algorithms and the publication of protocols to an institution-specific page.

Key Features

The platform provides a visual algorithm editor and content editor. Users can add text, images, videos, and documents to each decision node, and can directly search PubMed evidence and insert it into protocols. The admin dashboard supports creating protocols, assigning them to different authors, setting deadlines, approving publication, and identifying outdated protocols that need revision. On the publishing side, it can generate an institution-specific website with customizable logo, layout, text, messages, and highlighted protocols. It can also automatically create a PWA for access across iOS, Android, Windows, mobile, and desktop devices. Analytics can track access by protocol, specialty, and author.

Pricing and Trial

The public pages do not disclose plans, pricing, billing cycles, or payment methods. The website offers a demo entry point, but states that it is limited to a public area simulating a single hospital. To view the protocol authoring tool, users need to contact the team. This means procurement requires sales communication and a customized evaluation before purchase.

Pros and Cons

Its main strength is that the product is highly specialized, covering the full lifecycle of clinical protocols from authoring, evidence citation, collaboration, approval, and publishing to usage analytics. It also emphasizes compliance with accreditation requirements such as ONA and JCI, making it suitable for hospital quality management and clinical pathway development. Its protocol library import capability can also reduce the cost of building from scratch. The downside is that public information is limited regarding security, privacy, data storage, APIs, hospital system integrations, and granular permissions. Its core editing capabilities also cannot be fully tested directly.

Who It’s For and Access from China

It is best suited for Brazilian and Portuguese-speaking healthcare institutions, hospital accreditation teams, and clinical quality management departments. Access conditions for users in China are unknown, and they may face issues related to language, local medical guidelines, healthcare data compliance, payment, and local implementation support. Comparable products include UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, DynaMed, Elsevier ClinicalKey, as well as domestic Chinese hospital clinical pathway or medical knowledge-base systems.
