STATEMENT OF NEED
This activity was developed in 2001 in response to the Neurosurgeons’ need to keep abreast of advances and new developments in Neurosurgery. Dr. Donald Deye, Medical Director, Oakstone Medical Publishing, and other practitioners surveyed the opinions of colleagues and practitioners and agreed on the following: (1) Neurosurgeons 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) Neurosurgeons need a timesaving way to more effectively use the peer-reviewed reports that appear in the medical journals, (4) The use of a literature service is a practical source of medical education.
