About

DynaMed provides current clinical evidence to assist your decision-making for patients.

For a clinical reference resource to be truly evidence-based, conclusions must be based on the best available evidence. That means the evidence must consistently and systematically be identified, selected, evaluated, summarized and synthesized, as well as continuously updated. The DynaMed evidence-based methodology applies the following strict protocols:

  • Identifying the evidence
  • Selecting the best available evidence
  • Critical appraisal
  • Objectively reporting the evidence
  • Synthesizing multiple evidence reports
  • Basing conclusions on the evidence
  • Updating daily

Every article considered for inclusion in DynaMed is processed using this system, and the system ensures the integrity of the conclusions.
