Electronic research databases provider EBSCO Publishing, US, has added more than 500 clinical calculators to DynaMed, an evidence-based clinical decision support resource.
Licensed from MedCalc 3000, these calculators include medical equations, decision support tools, prediction tools, statistics calculators, dose conversion tools and unit conversion tools. Clinical calculators help clinicians to choose the best diagnostic tests and interpret the results as well as provide test characteristics. Calculators also help to determine the likelihood of a diagnosis, estimate a patient's risk for a disease and estimate a given prognosis.
Expanding the content and tools available in DynaMed is an ongoing mission of EBSCO Publishing in order to provide the best available evidence to clinicians at the point-of-care. In the last few years DynaMed has been updated with a new, intuitive interface and expanded coverage to more than 3,000 clinical topics. Resources such as drug information, IDC-9/ICD-10 codes and patient education handouts have also been added. In addition, access to DynaMed content has been extended through partnerships with medical content providers such as LexiComp and Zynx Health.
