UpToDate is an evidence-based, peer-reviewed, preferred medical resource designed to provide medical professionals access to current clinical information. With UpToDate, medical personnel get specific, detailed answers to clinical questions in their office, exam room or bedside. It covers more than 7,700 topics in 14 medical specialties and includes more than 80,000 pages of text, graphics, links to Medline abstracts, more than 260,000 references and a drug database.
Medical personnel have been requesting permission to install this medical reference tool on their MC4 laptops. After extensive testing, UpToDate is now listed on MC4’s qualified software list, permitting users to install UpToDate on their MC4 systems.
The software is not automatically loaded onto MC4 systems, so users need to request the most current version of UpToDate, by contacting Ann Potter, Library Program Office, U.S. Army Medical Command.
