Rehabilitation Reference Center's8482; (http://www.ebscohost.com/thisTopic.phpmarketID=16's38;topicID=1134) (RRC) from EBSCO Publishing (http://www.ebscohost.com) is now available, making the latest evidence-based clinical information accessible to thousands of physical 's38; occupational therapists, orthopedists, and outpatient center 's38; homecare facilitators. RRC is designed to deliver valid and relevant information at the point-of-care so that rehabilitation specialists can build treatment regimens for patients.
Rehabilitation Reference Center will grow to contain more than 600 Clinical Reviews which pull together the latest research on diseases and conditions. Clinical Reviews are written and
reviewed by in-house physical and occupational therapists. The information in the Clinical Reviews is organized so that information is easy to find and easily fits into the work flow.
Each review includes: a Description (including ICD9/ICD10 codes), Causes 's38; Risk Factors, Overall Contraindications/Precautions, Examination, Assessment/Plan of Care, Desired
Outcomes/Outcome Measures, Maintenance or Prevention, and References.
The Clinical Reviews are created using a seven-step evidence-based methodology (http://www.ebscohost.com/dynamed/content.php)
developed by DynaMed's8482; and using the CINAHL's174; editorial system of systematic literature surveillance, indexing and reviewing. RRC content will be updated monthly and urgent
issues will be included in real time.
The database will also provide users with access to tests 's38; measures, patient education handouts, a drug reference guide, reference books, guidelines, clinical updates and nearly
10,000 exercise images. Each image demonstrates and explains an exercise. RRC users will be able to create custom patient education packets for individual patients that include home
exercise images 's38; instructions plus evidence-based patient handouts.
The EBSCOhost Integration Toolkit (http://www.ebscohost.com/thisTopic.phpmarketID=2's38;topicID=683) allows
for easy integration of EBSCO'ss clinical reference content (http://www.ebscohost.com/thisMarket.phpmarketID=16) directly
into Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems. Bringing evidence-based information from a trusted source into the clinical workflow allows clinicians to quickly find relevant content and
make informed treatment decisions.
Linking technology available from EBSCOhost allows RRC users to link to other subscription databases from EBSCO Publishing, such as CINAHL, MEDLINE's174;, SPORTDiscus's8482; and the
soon-to-be-released Rehabilitation 's38; Sports Medicine Source's8482; (http://www.ebscohost.com/thisTopic.phpmarketID=2's38;topicID=1135). Rehabilitation 's38; Sports Medicine Source
contains full-text for more than 190 sports medicine and rehabilitation journals. This is an essential database for hospital rehabilitation and sports clinicians, with full-text coverage
dating back to 1963 and key scholarly titles in this discipline.
While designed for the point-of-care, Rehabilitation Reference Center is able to serve many needs. Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Orthopedics are some of the largest services
offered in US hospitals and there are many Physical Therapy Clinics, both private and those associated with hospitals. In addition many academic institutions offer Physical Therapy
Programs and Occupational Therapy Schools.
