## Abstract (arXiv)

Deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) in high-stakes clinical settings remains limited by structural hallucinations, weak deterministic reasoning over tabular patient data, and omissions in vector retrieval. This paper presents the architecture and validation of Medi-Gemma, a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) for wound pathology triage and workflow automation. The platform introduces a decoupled framework that separates clinical perception from data orchestration while preserving traceable reasoning. Medi-Gemma uses a multi-stage pipeline coordinated by a centralized ClinicalOrchestrator. Data requests are handled without generative inference by a DataManager that cleans unstructured Electronic Medical Record (EMR) files through type coercion. Natural language queries are processed by a hierarchical IntentRouter, which routes requests to deterministic analytics paths executed by a PandasQueryEngine or to patient-specific reasoning managed by a ClinicalRAGEngine using a CPU-optimized vector store. A key contribution is the Ground Truth Injection Module, which intercepts patient-specific queries, extracts numeric identification tokens, queries the structured dataframe via Pandas, retrieves the latest validated clinical state, and embeds this snapshot as an overriding context block in the LLM prompt before generation. Safety compliance is enforced by a deterministic ProtocolManager that maps clinical terminology to fixed evidence-based risk pathways, while a SafetyVerifier phrase filter prevents output rule violations. Validation shows that this architecture eliminates semantic context drift, prevents database compilation crashes, and improves factual adherence to backend clinical repositories. These results support Medi-Gemma as a safer pattern for LLM-based clinical decision support where structured data fidelity, retrieval grounding, and deterministic safeguards are essential.
