UpToDate for NHS

For over 30 years, when clinicians have had questions, they’ve turned to UpToDate® for answers.

Why UpToDate?

Even the most experienced NHS clinician doesn’t know the answer to every question. Finding the right answer quickly, at the point of care, matters.

An independent study showed that UpToDate users found answers to their questions 2.5 times faster than with other tools, with most spending one minute or less searching for the information they need.

When clinicians have questions, they prefer UpToDate.

Best-in-class content

The NHS is one of the world’s largest employers, serving millions of patients every day. Meeting the diverse needs of the UK population, which is growing and aging, is a big challenge.

Over the past year, people in the NHS searched UpToDate 2 million times for answers. The most popular topic (hyponatraemia) got almost 10,000 views. But more than 5,000 topics were searched just once.

“UpToDate is the most popular clinical resource that we have.”
