New I.D. References from Skyscape

Skyscape today announced five new additions to its infectious disease specialty line, including two titles from noted expert Dr. John Bartlett of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. This is a significant increase in the amount of infectious disease information now available to doctors for their PDAs and is invaluable, according to Dr. Bartlett.

These include:

BartlettHIV - Johns Hopkins Hospital 2002 Guide to Medical Care of Patients With HIV Infection, 10th Edition, published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, keeps medical professionals on top of the latest guidelines for the care of HIV patients. Written by authority, Dr. John Bartlett, this reference includes the latest developments on HIV serology and epidemiology, classification and natural history, diagnostic evaluation and prevention of complications and opportunistic infections.

BartlettID - Also written Dr. John Bartlett, this PDA version of 2002 Pocket Book of Infectious Disease Therapy, 11th Edition, published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, covers all relevant aspects of antibiotics. It offers the latest information on dosage, trade names, price, indications, interactions, use in pregnancy and renal failure. Management guidelines given by organ system and disease category provide rapid access to the best available therapies. Tabular material contains newly approved antibiotics and new recommendations for management.

HIVGuide - This PDA version of HIV Primary Care Guidelines written by Dr. Howard Libman, a noted HIV clinician educator at Harvard Medical School, provides practical up-to-date recommendations on the outpatient management of HIV disease. It covers topics of importance to clinical staff involved in the primary care of HIV-infected patients. These include HIV antibody testing, initial evaluation, antiretroviral therapy, opportunistic infection prophylaxis, immunizations and other health care maintenance issues, stratified management, and sexually transmitted diseases.

NelsonABX - This PDA version of Nelson's 2002-2003 Pocket Book of Pediatric Antimicrobial Therapy, published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, is the most popular and widely used pocket reference on pediatric antimicrobial therapy. For each disease, the authors provide a commentary to help physicians select the best of all antimicrobial choices. Drug descriptions cover all antimicrobial agents available today and include complete information about dosing regimens. In response to growing concerns about overuse of antibiotics, the program includes guidelines on when not to prescribe antimicrobials.
