Merck recently announced a new wireless browsing format for MerckMedicus.com, an award-winning online medical resource for physicians and other healthcare professionals. This new access avenue allows physicians to use a wireless personal digital assistant (PDA), BlackBerry or smartphone to remotely access in real-time some of the most widely used and trusted health information resources from MerckMedicus.com.
Registered users of MerckMedicus.com can use their wireless handheld device to connect to www.merckmedicus.com in their browser, and then sign in to access resources such as The Merck Manual of Diagnosis and Therapy, 17th Edition; Pocket Guide to Diagnostic Tests; MEDLINE journal abstracts; and Reuters Medical News. The unique Personal Search Assistant feature also allows physicians to search through the current issues of more than 200 journals in addition to the selected wireless offerings available. The MEDLINE journals and Reuters Medical News can be uniquely tailored to physician-preferred choices, specialty or therapeutic area of interest. Merck is planning to add more unique features optimized for wireless in the near future.
The wireless option is compatible with all cellular phones with web-browsing capabilities, smartphones and other handheld devices that use Windows Mobile-based Pocket PC, Blackberry or Palm OS operating systems.
