E Resources Round up!

UpToDate

UpToDate is an evidence based, peer reviewed information resource covering more than 7,400 topics in 13 medical specialties (including oncology, haematology, gynaecology, critical care, internal medicine and endocrinology). UpToDate is formed from a clinical community of experts who function as reviewers, authors and editors. UpToDate users provide feedback to the editorial group. This community's combined efforts result in a comprehensive database of medical information. The database contains topic reviews that include a synthesis of the literature, the latest evidence, and specific recommendations for patient care. There are also patient information sections and new information is highlighted in the “what’s new” section.

Access is from on The Christie site only via the library web pages.
