      ERROR IN MEDICINE: THE ROLE OF COGNITIVE BIAS. (English)
    • Abstract:
      Our mind implements thinking shortcuts that influence our decisions and induce into reasoning errors (bias). Cognitive biases influence clinical reasoning and error in medicine. Bias cannot be eliminated, but it is necessary to know them in order to analyze them retrospectively in order to prevent any distorting effects that could negatively impact the diagnostic and therapeutic process. The two systems of thinking, fast thinking and slow thinking, can both cause diagnostic and therapeutic errors; therefore, both systems should be activated in clinical work to reduce bias.

    • Abstract:
      La mente mette in atto scorciatoie di pensiero che influenzano le nostre decisioni e inducono in errori di ragionamento (bias). I bias cognitivi influenzano il ragionamento clinico e l’errore in medicina. Non sono eliminabili, ma è necessario conoscerli per analizzarli a posteriori in modo da prevenire eventuali effetti distorsivi che potrebbero impattare in modo negativo nel processo diagnostico e terapeutico. Due sistemi di pensiero, il pensiero veloce e il pensiero lento, possono causare, entrambi, errori in ambito diagnostico e terapeutico; pertanto, il clinico dovrebbe attivare entrambi i sistemi, per ridurre i bias.
