With the literally thousands of articles published annually in internal medicine, it is virtually an impossible task to sort through and read everything necessary to stay current. And there’s the daunting task to even identify all the key clinical developments that are reported on in the numerous journals.

The physician-editors with Practical Reviews in Internal Medicine sort through dozens of publications, find the most relevant studies, summarize them, and suggest ways to apply this information in practice. Most of the reviews are available to you in convenient audio format – allowing you to download this material to your laptop, MP3 player or almost any portable device.

Accreditation

Statement of Need
This activity was developed in 1984 in response to the Internal Medicine Specialists’ need to keep abreast of advances and new developments in Internal Medicine. Dr. Donald Deye, Medical Director, Oakstone Medical Publishing, and other practitioners surveyed the opinions of colleagues and practitioners and agreed on the following: (1) Internal Medicine specialists’ must maintain skills and competency; (2) The medical journals are a fertile source of new information, which however, is too diverse and voluminous to be effectively used by most busy clinicians, (3) Internal Medicine specialists’ need a timesaving way to more effectively use the peer-reviewed reports that appear in the journals, (4) The use of this audio is a practical source of education medicine.
