Description

This is the de-identified data set used to conduct the analyses in the study published as Original Research in the JMIR under the title "Benchmarking triage capability of symptom checkers against that of medical laypersons: Survey study" (https://doi.org/10.2196/24475)

The data set contains the assessments of the urgency of symptoms to 45 fictitious clinical case vignettes by 91 US participants, and the participants' age, gender and level of education. Data for the symptom checker apps is needed to fully reproduce our study and can be found in the appendix of the paper "Evaluation of symptom checkers for self diagnosis and triage: audit study" by Semigran et al. (2015) (https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.h3480).
