I was extremely comfortable navigating through the software and finding the patient care information I was looking for.â€
Unbound’s interface provides tables of contents from just-published journals, constant content updates and citations and abstracts from around more than 18 million medical journal articles.
Bill Detmer, MD, President of Unbound Medicine, says, “Although Unbound has supported the iPhone since it was launched, we are delighted to now support native applications delivered through iTunes. By adding the iPhone to the long list of devices supported by the Unbound Platform, we can help busy health professionals answer questions that arise during the course of patient care and also stay abreast of the latest developments in their fields.â€
