Diagnostic accuracy of physician's gestalt in suspected COVID-19. Prospective bicentric study.

CONCLUSIONS: In suspected COVID-19, CG and CBIIG have fair diagnostic accuracy, in line with physicians' gestalt for other acute conditions. Negative RT-PCR plus low probability based on CBIIG can rule out COVID-19 with a relative low number of false negative cases. PMID: 33576155 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
