How to log a pearl
Just talk.
The AI does the organizing.
No template, no tidiness required. Brain-dump a case or a single lesson and ClinicalPearls turns it into a searchable pearl you keep for your whole career.
What you say
"So the patient desatted on induction, mask was tough, we went to a two-hand grip and an oral airway and it opened right up..."
What gets saved
Difficult mask ventilation: escalate to two-hand grip plus oral airway early.
From voice to stored pearl
Four steps, none of them formatting.
Sign in and hit record
Open ClinicalPearls and tap the pearl. No template to fill in, no fields to fight.
Speak freely
Talk the way you would to a colleague. The full case or just the one lesson that stuck. Half-finished sentences are fine.
The AI structures it
Identifiers are scrubbed and your words become a Case Card: the brief, the decision, the alternatives, the teaching point and tags.
It is logged and stored
Your pearl lands in your private dossier, searchable for when the same situation walks back through the door.
The whole point
Speak the way you think. The structure, the tags, the teaching point: that is the AI's job, not yours.
Every patient teaches you something no textbook will, and most of it fades within a week. Capture it while it is fresh and it compounds instead.
Common questions
What you might be wondering.
Do I have to be organized?
No. The AI extracts the structure from what you actually said. You never fit your thinking into a form.
What if I only have one lesson, not a whole case?
That is what a pearl is. Hit the same record button, state the one thing you learned, and it is stored the same way.
How long should I talk?
A pearl can be one or two sentences. A full case is usually three to five minutes. No minimum, no penalty for rambling.
Is my audio stored?
No. Your speech is transcribed and structured, and only the structured pearl is saved. Raw audio is never stored or shared.
