Clinical Key is a great resource containing lots of full text content and a host of other features. Aimed at practising clinicians, it's a really useful way to access evidence based information.
If you are a junior doctor, consultant, nurse or AHP, Clinical Key will have something to offer you.
Everything is discoverable using a simple search engine that recognises medical terminology and offers quick short cuts to the information you need.
The search engine offers a number of simple filters to increase the accuracy of your results and you can also select the type of content you want (books, journal articles, guidelines, etc.). You can also browse for specific titles if you know what you are looking for.
Full text content includes
- 1,400 topic pages giving an overview of disease diagnosis, risk factors, treatment and more
- Over 600 electronic journals covering a broad range of specialities including the whole Lancet series
- Over 1000 electronic books
- 850 First Consult monographs
- 17,000 + medical / surgical videos
- 300 + Procedures Consult videos
- 15,000 patient education handouts
- 2.2 million images
- You can find a full content list here
You can access Clinical Key online at www.clinicalkey.com, (and the site adapts well if you are using a tablet or smartphone). There is also a free app that allows for easy use on the go for Android and iOS (Apple) devices.
To access Clinical Key (and the app) all you need is your OpenAthens password (register online here if you don't have one) to get started. If you register for an account on Clinical Key once you have logged in you will also be able to save your searches and content.
