Dynamed Trial - Have you had a look yet?

We currently have trial access to Dynamed  an online clinical decision support tool.  Please take a look, and let us know what you think, we would really value your feedback.

Dynamed provides clinically-organized summaries for over 3,000 disease and condition topics, incorporating over 1000 drug topics.  Dynamed editors monitor the content of over 500 medical journals, using a rigorous 7-step methodology for selecting and critically appraising each selected article. Dynamed is updated daily making it the most current point of care tool on the market.

NICE, SIGN and many other Royal College guidelines are included in the guideline section of each topic.  Patient UK and eMedicines Compendium links provide patient information.  Each drug topic has links to the BNF at topic level.

Doctors can use the bespoke CME form to register their online learning which can be submitted as part of a Doctors CPD portfolio.

You'll need an NHS Athens account registered to the Royal Surrey to get in, if you don't already have an account, registration is easy.  Just click here to register.  If you register from a pc connected to the RSCH network your account will be set up almost immediately and you will be ready to go.

We've just finished a trial of UpToDate, we've had lots of positive feedback, so we'd really like to encourage you to look at Dynamed too.

We'll be sending out a quick online survey to our Athens users next month and would be really grateful if you could complete one.  Your feedback will influence any future purchasing decisions.
