The DynaMed Weekly Update is a free newsletter service from DynaMed'’s editors. The newsletter provides valuable information to the medical community via email to opt-in subscribers; it is also available on the web, via podcast, and RSS feed. It is also archived for reference.
DynaMed editors monitor a large volume of research information on a daily basis through Systematic Literature Surveillance and frequently find articles that are of significant and timely interest to health care providers. Based on the criteria of choosing "articles most likely to change clinical practice," DynaMed sends a concise brief about these articles to subscribers in an email-based advertising-free newsletter.
Armed with the awareness of email clutter and information overload, editors work to keep the copy in the newsletter to a minimum while providing sufficient information to update the reader and provide links to additional information if the reader wants to know more. DynaMed subscribers can take advantage of persistent links to click from an article directly to the topic in DynaMed.
For those who want more information on DynaMed, the bottom of the newsletter includes brief notes about new topics added to DynaMed, topics available for review, updates on DynaMed's interface and other short items of interest.
