Cognitive biases, such as heuristics, help clinicians make rapid decisions, but these biases can result in errors. This review sought to explore biases in internal medicine, the impact of biases on patient outcomes, and the effect of debiasing strategies. Forty-one biases were studied, and debiasing strategies showed little to no effect on reducing bias.
