What is a biobook?

Biotandem composes an individualized biobook.

Biotype refers to a combination of individual patient characteristics that healthcare providers consider when making treatment decisions. Once a biotype is created or updated, Biotandem scans our knowledge database and composes an individualized biobook. A biobook is a collection of published recommendations for a given biotype.

  • A biobook presents information according to body and life items.

  • A biobook is structured as information blocks.

  • A biobook is based solely on current medical practice guidelines.

  • A biobook provides only biotype-specific information.

  • A biobook covers the guidelines of various medical divisions, institutions, or countries.

  • A biobook informs health professionals at various levels of medical care.

There are three search facilities to focus your interest and read the biobook. Focused information blocks are classified mainly as either for the assessment (Think) or the intervention (Act) process.

A. How to use the upper search bar: Select an item from a biotype-specific body-life item (like selecting from a content table) and review focused recommendations only for that body-life item.

B. How to use the lower search bar: Select up to three conditions (like selecting from an index) from biotype conditions and review focused recommendations for the selected condition(s) throughout all body-life items.

C. How to use both search bars simultaneously: Select a body-life item and up to three biotype conditions, and review focused recommendations for the selected condition(s) and body-life item.
