Ovid, part of Wolters Kluwer Health, has announced the availability of OvidMD, claimed to be the first clinical tool from Ovid designed especially for physicians and other clinicians. OvidMD provides quick answers to clinical questions based on relevant full-text content from Ovid. The solution presents latest medical research on OvidSP and synoptic content from UpToDate through the same, easy-to-use interface.
Designed for and tested by physicians, OvidMD fills a clinical information gap between point-of- care tools and in-depth medical research, when a clinician has between 5-15 minutes of time to find quick, relevant answers in the literature. Verified by research conducted with physicians, OvidMD offers a variety of content that fits into the few minutes that are available when a physician is with a patient, in the time that may be available during a break, or in longer periods that may be available for more extensive research.
OvidMD delivers only clinically-relevant results from a simple search query. With a single search, OvidMD uncovers the latest treatment options, evidence-based guidelines, and drug therapies, plus users can download customizable patient handouts, link instantly to full text, review articles, and more. Convenient search tools include auto complete, synonym expansion, drawing on Ovid's proprietary controlled vocabulary lexicon to provide hundreds of thousands of medical synonyms, phrase detection, spelling suggestions, and highlighted search terms.
