Wolters Kluwer, a global provider of information and point of care solutions for the healthcare industry, has announced the release of UpToDate® MobileCompleteTM for mobile enterprise users. With this new capability, users can download comprehensive clinical content from UpToDate to their mobile device for offline access. The announcement, made during the HIMSS16 Annual Conference & Exhibition, ensures UpToDate institutional customers always have offline access to trusted, evidence-based recommendations across iOS and Android devices, regardless of wi-fi and cellular network connectivity challenges.
For institutional users at hospitals, health systems and academic institutions, UpToDate MobileComplete takes the speed and convenience of the award-winning mobile app one step further by enabling users to download the UpToDate clinical content locally to their device. With MobileComplete, clinicians can access all of UpToDate without an Internet connection—even in dead zones. For users with restrictive data plans, offline access aids in reducing data usage.
UpToDate MobileComplete delivers instant access to more than 10,500 clinician topics, over 9,700 graded recommendations authored by clinical experts, more than 5,600 drug entries, 30,000 graphics and CME credit tracking, as well as numerous mobile-optimised calculators. Plus, to ensure users access the most current recommendations, the app periodically verifies and updates content when a network connection is present.
A worldwide survey conducted by UpToDate revealed that individual doctors and healthcare institutions are increasingly implementing mobile health strategies to drive adoption of devices like iPads and smartphones as clinical tools. The survey found that 77% of doctors use a smartphone during practice and 70% use mobile devices for clinical decision support. With UpToDate MobileComplete, doctors get actionable answers to point-of-care questions at their hospitals, satellite offices, home or on-the-go, with and without an Internet connection.
