Get the clinical information you need with UpToDate
Medical knowledge is constantly advancing. When every care decision you make matters and every second counts, UpToDate® delivers the latest clinical content and expert guidance to support medical professionals in making safe and effective choices at every step of patient care.
The editors of UpToDate® have a systematic process for identifying, reviewing and synthesising new clinical evidence as it applies to a clinical question. More than 50 in-house physician deputy editors, all of whom receive training in clinical epidemiology, oversee the integrity and consistency of our editorial process.
​
While other clinical decision support solutions may use — or claim to use — the best available evidence, UpToDate considers new evidence in the context of existing best practices to make actionable recommendations for care. UpToDate is uniquely positioned to accomplish this because more than 7,400 world-renowned experts in their field assist in interpreting the impact of new evidence on specific patient care situations.
