Preferred CDS solution by physicians and residents

In a large-scale, 118-hospital study, UpToDate was the most-used CDS solution by physicians and residents, used significantly more than any other resource.2

UpToDate has an important role in medical education

A study of internal medicine residents at the Mayo Clinic3 examined the impact of learning habits, including the use of UpToDate, on medical knowledge acquisition as measured by the Internal Medicine In-training Examination (IM-ITE). The study concluded that use of UpToDate was a predictor of performance and had associations with knowledge acquisition that were comparable to the benefit of a year in residency training.
