Unbound Medicine on Monday announced that its service, which provides physicians and nurses with access to medical content, is now available for the iPhone. A live demo is available.
Unbound Medicine publishes information on diseases, drugs and tests to help doctors and nurses keep up their knowledge. The service includes access to updated, commonly used references such as Harrison’s Manual of Medicine and Pocket Guide to Diagnostic Tests from McGraw-Hill, 5-Minute Clinical Consult from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Red Book from the American Academy of Pediatrics, and Davis’s Drug Guide and Taber’s Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary from F.A. Davis. The company also makes available “Unbound Medline,” enabling clinicians to track medical journals and search in more than 15 million journal articles.
The new iPhone interface takes advantage of the iPhone’s Safari Web browser, providing ways to navigate by tapping on index terms or by entering searches in forms. It also provides crosslinks and lists of related content.
