Online Point-of-Care Technology for Pediatrics
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has teamed up with Unbound Medicine to create an online reference source for pediatricians. The system can be accessed via computer, or wirelessly via PDA's and smart phones. The online’s content consists of three of the AAP’s most relied-upon practice resources: the new AAP Textbook of Pediatric Care, which is the standard reference of its kind; content from the AAP’s Red Book®, which provides detailed information on more than 200 childhood infectious diseases; and Bright Futures, the organization’s comprehensive health supervision guidelines.
The Unbound Platform from Unbound Medicine supports end-to-end digital publishing activities from content creation through multi-platform electronic delivery. For Pediatric Care Online, the Unbound Platform's editorial module, uPub, facilitates streamlined creation of modular content via distributed author networks. For users, the Unbound Platform delivers content where and when it is neededto personal digital assistants (PDAs), the Web, or wireless devices.
