More free H1N1 resources - Ebsco Publishing

Due to the global outbreak of Pandemic H1N1 Influenza, EBSCO Publishing (EBSCO) has made the pertinent influenza information available for free to health care providers worldwide. This site includes more than 50 evidence-based topics.

The publisher claims that the information provided “For Clinicians” and “For Nurses” consolidates the best-available evidence from hundreds of medical and nursing journals and systematic evidence review databases.

Each publication is reviewed cover-to-cover, and each article is evaluated for clinical relevance and scientific validity. The new evidence is then integrated with existing content, and overall conclusions are changed as appropriate representing a synthesis of the best available evidence and ensuring that health care providers stay current with recommendations for monitoring, diagnosing, and treating patients with flu-like illnesses.
