PD(X)MD: a new clinical information tool for patient care.
PD(X)MD is a new and promising evidence-based electronic primary care clinical information resource. It is geared primarily to the physician, as is its companion database, MDConsult, but it can also be very useful to medical and non-medical librarians seeking to quickly summarize current, accurate, and quality-filtered clinical information focusing on diagnosis, therapy, prognosis, and prevention.
