Our aim is to\nbuild a history line about HTT development and its pros and cons.\nMethod: We accessed Medline and LILACS database through the BVS search\nengine, using HTT equivalents in English, Portuguese, French, Spanish,\nand German. Original papers and reviews about HTT aiming general\npractice were selected, and their content comprehensively analyzed and\ndiscussed, following PRISMA guidelines. Results: From 24904 initial\nentries about HT since 1900, 105 were selected for analysis. First HTT\nwas identified before the 1st World War, mainly as mental screening\ntools. Later, other general practices HTT were developed, integrating\nstatistical and branching reasoning. Two advantages were consistently\nreported about clinician time saving and improvement on information\ngathering. However, their use did not become widespread, restricted to\nresearch scenarios and specific guidelines for clinical intervention.\nConclusions: HTT benefits may result from the systematization of HT, and\nit is not clear if it results in economic and quality of care\nimprovement. However, systematization of HT and the use of computational\nprocessing power may help medical practice and should not be overlooked.\nBetter comprehension of the diagnostic HT clinical act will help\ncomprehend how HTT may be useful for clinical practice, reasoning and\ndoctor patient relationship.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.22541\/au.170667259.95990605\/v1","type":"posted-content","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,31]],"date-time":"2024-01-31T03:43:20Z","timestamp":1706672600000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Adjuvant technologies in Medical History Taking: A historical overview"],"prefix":"10.22541","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7342-0634","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Helio Rocha","family":"Neto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Cavalcanti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4217-2823","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Diogo","family":"Telles-Correia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade de Lisboa"}]}],"member":"311","container-title":[],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,31]],"date-time":"2024-01-31T03:43:21Z","timestamp":1706672601000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.authorea.com\/users\/733120\/articles\/711027-adjuvant-technologies-in-medical-history-taking-a-historical-overview?commit=622944e3efdf7095c0da44ba133371b61ea5d13c"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,31]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.22541\/au.170667259.95990605\/v1","relation":{},"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,31]]},"subtype":"preprint"}}
