McGraw-Hill Professional, a division of McGraw-Hill Education, has announced the release of ClinicalAccess, an online clinical decision support tool designed to help physicians in hospitals, clinics, and ambulatory care facilities worldwide find the most targeted answers to clinical questions at the point of care.
ClinicalAccess redefines the way healthcare professionals find answers by providing access to the world's largest collection of physician-answered questions across 25 specialties in internal medicine. This breakthrough clinical information service was developed by a team of specialty physician editors who drew upon their extensive experience and actual approach to patient care. The team created the 120,000-question database and curated the most relevant and accurate answer to virtually every important clinical question that arises in a patient/doctor encounter.
Optimised to provide the fastest and most-relevant answer to specific clinical questions, ClinicalAccess further supports healthcare practitioners by providing deep-dive linking to more than 150,000 pages of expert content, including 70,000 images, procedural videos, and animations. In addition to the clinical content from McGraw-Hill Professional's acclaimed AccessMedicine platforms and its world-renowned textbooks such as Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, Rudolph's Pediatrics, and Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine, the service also features new and up-to-date information to reflect changes in medicine.
In addition, ClinicalAccess provides continuously updated references to the best health research from McMaster University Premium Literature Service (McMaster PLUS), one of the most-respected names in evidence-based medicine.
ClinicalAccess builds on the success of McGraw-Hill Professional's Access subscription services which are used by almost every medical school in the United States and in many countries around the world. The launch of ClinicalAccess represents an important contribution to solving the most pressing pain point in patient care – delivering specific and efficient answers to clinical questions at the point of care.
