Unique Identifiers

To ensure simultaneous access by multiple users of your clinical decision system, unique IDs must be generated.

Retrieving Diagnosis Results

After successfully submitting the POST request, the Diagnosis API system will generate a list of possible health conditions. Replace the placeholder value "DEMO_AuthenticationID" in the following GET request with your registered production ID:

```
https://diagnosisapi.azurewebsites.net/api/DDxItems/9999?AuthenticationID=DEMO_AuthenticationID
```

The value "9999" represents the ID assigned in the POST request.

Online Medical Information

Medical APIs: An Overview

Medical APIs serve as central repositories for various medical data. The DDxHub API, for instance, provides access to official information on medications and medical devices from global government agencies.

Harnessing Medical APIs

Medical websites and apps often leverage APIs to deliver valuable information to users. These APIs empower consumers with knowledge about drug interactions, disease symptoms, and available treatments.

Empowering Patient Care

In the past, parents would typically consult their pediatrician when their child fell ill. Today, many parents turn to online resources for guidance on common treatments. The DDxHub Diagnosis API allows users to enter symptoms and receive a list of potential diagnoses. Conversely, users can input a condition to retrieve common drug interactions, symptoms, and treatment plans.
