DynaMed Editors systematically monitor journals, journal review services, systematic review collections, guideline collections, drug information sources and other relevant sources.
DynaMed’s Systematic Literature Surveillance process includes:
- Cover-to-cover surveillance of highest-yield content sources
- Targeted MEDLINE searches for systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials for high-yield journals
- Targeted MEDLINE searches for selected subject areas (eg, complementary therapies) across all indexed journals (approximately 5,200)
- Comprehensive MEDLINE searches for guidelines
