ProQuest has announced that it is expanding its relationship with medical information provider BMJ. As part of the arrangement, ProQuest will distribute BMJ Best Practice as a subscription to academic institutions in North America, including medical schools, teaching hospitals, and government hospitals.
A recent independent review published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research ranked BMJ Best Practice as one of the top clinical decision-support tools for breadth of disease coverage, editorial quality, and evidence-based methodology.
BMJ Best Practice is the only point-of-care-tool with a genuinely evidence-based clinical workflow component structured around patient consultation. It delivers essential information to busy residents, clinicians, and students exactly when and where they need it.
BMJ Best Practice provides an instant second opinion, without the need to consult multiple resources. In a single source, BMJ Best Practice combines the latest research evidence, guidelines and expert opinion and presents it in a step-by-step approach that covers prevention, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.
BMJ Best Practice is an essential information resource that delivers fast and trusted answers to diagnostic clinical questions. It includes current information on thousands of diagnoses and diagnostic tests, reviews from the esteemed BMJ Clinical Evidence, seamless links to drug formularies for comprehensive drug information, more than 6,000 diagnostic and treatment guidelines, over 200 plain-language patient information leaflets to support treatment options, full reference links and more than 3,000 colour images.
In addition to BMJ Best Practice, ProQuest offers a number of medical databases including Health & Medical Collection, Nursing & Allied Health Collection and the Health Research Premium Collection.
