All
WUTH members of staff have access to UpToDate, a tool to support clinical
decision making.
Access
UpToDate via the WUTH intranet (select the UpToDate link in the ‘Clinical’ box)
or via www.uptodate.com with your NHS Athens account.
UpToDate
has adopted the GRADE approach to classify both the strength of recommendation
and the quality of the underlying information. Currently UpToDate includes more
than 9,000 graded recommendations, and the process is ongoing. To view a topic's
graded recommendations, simply click on the "Summary and Recommendations" button
at the top of the outline.
Learn
more about evidence-based medicine, as well as more in-depth instruction about
the GRADE system, with the UpToDate interactive tutorial on grading available at
www.uptodate.com/home/grading-tutorial.
