PHILADELPHIA, Nov 17, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ --
The physicians of the world renowned Doctors Without Borders/Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), which won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999, will receive free access to MD Consult (www.mdconsult.com), Elsevier's premier electronic clinical decision support (CDS) tool, as the result of a special new Elsevier campaign.
As part of its "All You Need to Make a Difference" Campaign, Elsevier, a world leader in healthcare and medical publishing and online solutions, will donate a free subscription to MSF for each annual individual MD Consult subscription purchased between Nov. 16 and Dec. 18, 2009. Based on its projections, Elsevier estimates that the month-long campaign could provide 400 subscriptions to MSF's volunteer physicians. Based on average monthly sales, Elsevier estimates that the licenses donated to MSF's volunteer physicians could be worth as much as $140,000.
"We are extremely grateful to Elsevier for choosing to contribute MD Consult subscriptions and financial support to MSF," said Jennifer Tierney, Director of Development, MSF-USA. "Its generosity will help to provide essential emergency medical care to people caught in medical crisis at what could be the most vulnerable moment of their lives. Whether treating children for acute malnutrition, vaccinating against diseases like meningitis or providing aid to people suffering from a natural disaster, Elsevier's contribution will make a substantial difference to our programs around the world."
Both Elsevier and MSF share a commitment to advancing global healthcare through timely, accurate clinical knowledge and data. MSF aid workers operate programs in more than 60 countries, from Cambodia, Guatemala and Armenia, to Burundi, Brazil and Bosnia. Elsevier, in turn, has 7,000 employees working in more than 70 offices worldwide and a track record of partnership with global science and health communities in Asia, Africa, Europe, North and South America, the Middle East and the U.S. Clinicians in more than 139 countries throughout the world now use Elsevier's CDS tools.
"During this season of giving and compassion, Elsevier wanted to donate CDS tools that will surely enhance care and improve outcomes for patients living in troubled spots of the world," said Randy Charles, Managing Director, Global Clinical Reference, Elsevier. "By supporting MSF physicians through 'All You Need to Make a Difference,' Elsevier fulfills its global healthcare mission of building insight and breaking boundaries. Elsevier is dedicated to providing every clinician in the world with accurate, evidence-based, interactive answers to the most critical clinical questions."
MD Consult will also help volunteer physicians diagnose and treat conditions associated with armed conflict, malnutrition, natural disasters and lack of access to care, and other epidemics. With a world population of close to seven billion people, some 32.9 million have HIV/AIDS, 13,700,000 have tuberculosis and 247,000,000 have malaria, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation's Global Health Facts.

- Clinicians Benefit From Easy Access to the Authoritative Information Doctors Trust
Elsevier, the world's leading publisher of scientific, technical, and medical information products and services, announced today that physicians of any specialty will be able to access an entire library of quality medical content on their mobile devices with the launch of MD Consult Mobile. Because physicians frequently travel between medical facilities and hospitals and often are not able to use a computer as they do rounds or perform other tasks away from an office, having access to evidence-based clinical content at any time or in any location is becoming increasingly essential. Optimized for iPhones, BlackBerrys and other smartphone devices, MD Consult Mobile allows clinicians to consult the same MD Consult content available from a laptop or desktop computer.
"Being able to get to the kind of content I would normally only be able to see if I was sitting at a computer is a big advantage as I go through my day," said Neil W. Rawlins, MD, a Board Certified OB-GYN and Medical Information Officer for Kadlec Clinic in the state of Washington. "Hunting for an unoccupied computer in any medical facility is frustrating, so having access to MD Consult from the palm of my hand is a great leap forward for clinical decision support."
MD Consult Mobile provides a new interface that is optimized for a small screen, making an extensive collection of books, journal articles, Clinics, and guidelines easily accessed and read from a mobile device's web browser. MD Consult Mobile users can browse directly to content via Quick Reference links that cover a growing list of medical topics with pre-organized resources; search books, Clinics, journals/MEDLINE(R), and practice guidelines; view full-text chapters and journal articles plus images of all searchable content; and email content links, to themselves for later review, or to colleagues.
"Physicians require comprehensive access to current information as close to the point of patient care as possible," said Randy Charles, Managing Director, Global Clinical Reference, Elsevier. "The introduction of MD Consult Mobile is a direct result of the feedback of loyal MD Consult customers. Being able to consult this evidence-based clinical content from a mobile device will help our users find efficient clinical answers and make better patient treatment decisions no matter where they happen to be."
MD Consult Mobile is available at no additional charge to individual subscribers, as well as end-users at institutions with site license subscriptions.
"Everyone acquainted with MD Consult will recognize its authoritative sources, such as Cecil Medicine, Braunwald's Heart Disease, Sabiston Textbook of Surgery, Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics, the Harriet Lane Handbook, Ferri's Clinical Advisor 2010, the Clinics of North America, leading clinical journals, practice guidelines from professional medical societies, and many more," added Charles. "Now subscribers can access that content by simply opening their phone's Internet browser and typing in m.mdconsult.com."
