● CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT

Veterinary clinical decision support while the exam is happening

Vetinuity is a clinical assistant for veterinarians that listens to the exam and puts differentials, diagnostics, treatment options and doses drawn from journal articles in front of you, each with its citation, while you make the decision.

What does the workup panel put beside the case?

The workup panel presents differentials, pathogenesis, suggested diagnostics and treatment options, including literature doses. Each recommendation carries its journal citation. Vetinuity follows the spoken exam, so the history you discuss with the client and the findings you describe supply the context for those suggestions. You can read the explanation and its source while deciding what fits the patient in front of you. The veterinarian chooses which possibilities to pursue and which tests or options to discuss with the owner.

Clinical decision support for veterinary differential diagnosis also needs to respond when new information arrives. Photograph a lab panel and its abnormal values enter the medical record, updating the suggestions for the case. An assistant that suggests diagnostics, drug doses and references gives you the source to inspect before acting on a recommendation. The treatment-options page describes how doses drawn from the literature accompany the proposed options. Those are published doses for your review; this page provides no patient-specific dose calculations or instructions to administer a drug.

SOAP documentation from the conversation you are already having

Vetinuity produces the SOAP note from the same conversation that supplies the case history and examination findings. You talk with the client and describe what you find; the assistant builds the medical record from that exchange. Photographs can add material that is already on paper: patient labels, old records and lab panels. A lab photograph puts abnormal values into the record and updates the clinical suggestions. You do not have to narrate the printed values to bring them into the case.

The client-facing summary also comes from the conversation. When live translation is used, the translated exchange supplies the record and the summary, and discharge instructions can be provided in the client's language. The scribe-alternative explanation covers the clinical assistant's role beyond documentation; what it does describes the available capabilities.

Vetinuity works alongside whatever PIMS you run. Nothing to install in the record system. The note pastes into the record with formatting intact.

Automatic language detection and live translation during the exam

Automatic language detection starts with the client's speech. The English-speaking veterinarian does not need to know the language or select it before beginning the exchange. Vetinuity translates live across 80+ languages, in both directions: the veterinarian's explanation reaches the client in their language, and the client's reply comes back in English. Spanish is an example of a client language within that set. The feature is live translation, and it has been running in production since July 2026.

The translated conversation produces the medical record and the client-facing summary. Discharge instructions can also be in the client's language, so the written material they take home can use the language spoken during the visit. Translation is available within the clinical assistant's subscription, which belongs to the individual veterinarian and follows them between workplaces. The web app is the primary way to use Vetinuity; iPhone and Android apps are also live. Read how live translation works for more about automatic detection during the appointment.

Batch rounds capture and the individual veterinarian's board

Rounds capture is batch, and the board belongs to the individual veterinarian. Hands-free patient intake lets you capture patients while speaking. Exam-room recordings update the board automatically, and lab photos feed information back into it as results arrive. A photograph of a lab sheet extracts the abnormal values into the medical record and updates the clinical suggestions for that case. The bloodwork photo capture page describes what happens when a printed panel becomes part of the record.

Photo capture also accepts patient labels and old records, so paper documents can become part of the chart without entering their contents by hand. You can capture rounds through spoken intake, then continue the case with exam-room recordings and lab photos that update your board. The subscription belongs to you and follows you between workplaces. It costs $99 per veterinarian per month or $800 a year, with a 14-day free trial and no credit card up front. Technicians and assistants are free. The emergency-veterinarian page describes using these capabilities during a shift.

Who decides what to do with a clinical suggestion?

The veterinarian decides. Vetinuity explains and cites; it never prescribes. A differential is a possibility to assess against the history and examination. A proposed diagnostic is an option for the veterinarian to evaluate. A literature dose comes from a published source and is not a patient-specific calculation on this page. Each recommendation includes a journal citation so you can inspect the source before deciding whether the reasoning applies to the animal you have examined.

The clinical-question examples show ways to ask about a case, including distinctions between possibilities, diagnostic choices and the evidence behind treatment options. That page leaves the questions unanswered. It supplies no doses to administer and no instructions for treating an animal. The clinical glossary explains the terms used in these discussions. Within the assistant, suggestions develop from the exam conversation and change when a lab photo adds abnormal values to the record. New information can change the considerations presented; deciding what that information means and what happens next remains the examining veterinarian's responsibility.

Where does the supporting veterinary literature come from?

Vetinuity's clinical corpus contains more than 10,000 peer-reviewed veterinary journal articles. Every recommendation has its supporting journal citation attached, including suggestions about differentials, diagnostics and treatment options. Doses shown with treatment options are drawn from the literature. The reference identifies the source behind the suggestion so the veterinarian can read the evidence used to support it. An article is evidence to evaluate in relation to the patient's history, findings and incoming results, rather than an instruction to apply its conclusion to every case.

The published clinical answers let you read sourced veterinary discussions on this site. They include questions about resuscitation, toxins and other case presentations, with references available to inspect. In the assistant, the exam conversation supplies the case context, and a photographed lab panel adds abnormal values that update the suggestions. The citation accompanies the recommendation as you review it. Vetinuity explains the cited considerations; the veterinarian chooses the diagnosis, which diagnostic options to pursue and what treatment options to discuss with the owner.

A practicing emergency veterinarian's view of the workflow

Vetinuity is a true veterinary clinical assistant. It follows the whole exam: it suggests differentials, diagnostics and treatment options with journal citations attached, translates the conversation live with clients in 80+ languages, both directions, and builds the medical record from that same conversation. A photo of a lab panel puts the abnormal values straight into the record. The subscription belongs to the vet, not the hospital, so it goes wherever you practice.

The subscription costs $99 per veterinarian per month or $800 a year. There is a 14-day free trial with no credit card up front, and technicians and assistants are free. The web app is primary, with iPhone and Android apps live.

The rounds board supports hands-free patient intake, with updates from exam-room recordings and photographed lab sheets. Client-facing summaries come from the conversation, and discharge instructions can be provided in the client's language.

Example

Where can I read a worked example of the clinical panel?

Read the published PU/PD case for a worked example of a dog brought in for increased drinking and urination. It is an example, not a report of a real patient. The owner describes changes in drinking, urination and appetite, and the veterinarian describes examination findings aloud. The recorded problems include polyuria and polydipsia, increased appetite, a pot-bellied abdomen and a thin haircoat. The page then shows the differentials proposed from that information and the journal references supporting them.

The proposed diagnostics include urine testing, a serum chemistry panel and a complete blood count. They appear as considerations for the veterinarian to review, with citations beside them. Later in the example, a photograph of the chemistry printout adds abnormal values to the medical record. Those results change the suggestions from what the history alone supported. You can follow the transition from the owner's account to recorded problems, then to cited differentials, proposed diagnostics and incoming lab information on the linked page. The veterinarian reads the references and decides what to discuss with the owner.
