Clinical Information
Why use these tools?
These tools focus on providing clinical answers that are grounded in evidence-based practice. You'll find comprehensive information on:
Clinical databases
ClinicalKey
In addition to full-text articles from leading medical journals and reference books across a wide range of specialties, this database also provides clinically relevant drug information and patient handouts. ClinicalKey includes First Consult, full text information on drugs, diseases and procedures, and clinical practice guidelines with supporting documentation.
Cochrane Reviews
Contains systematic reviews of primary research in human health care and health policy, including systematic nursing reviews. You can search and view both the abstract and the full text of the systematic reviews.
Find answers to clinical questions in this evidence-based medical database, updated daily.
