OpenEvidence

Thank you for being here for us! So useful, I use you everyday in practice!

A helpful review on what I have believed for over 50 years. there is no such thing as being obese and truly healthy.

I’m a curious RN and FNP student. I had been using Grok to learn about conditions and treatments and to explore case studies. I’m so glad I found OE! I call it “The Evidence” in conversation. It feels like a playground and I’ve just gotten started with exploring what it can do. I am so excited to use this tool both during school and in practice.

This app has been blocked to UK users. We don’t have anything else here that I can see as being even half as good. I used the app daily for CPD, literature review, reviewing interesting case studies, even to help me explain issues to patients. It was the best thing that had ever happened to democratise access to the best quality medical knowledge globally. What can we do to regain access? What are the issues so we can try to help from this end. I’m writing to my MP.

I’m 80, but lucky to have absolutely loved radiology and medicine, such that after retirement at 65, I continued to practice six 7-day weeks/year until 3 months ago. AI, of could, did not exist. OpenEvidence is phenomenal. It keeps me up to date anytime i want to review a subject or investigate a medical topic which I don’t know much about. I could go on forever about the incredible value of this website. Thanks for creating this, which uses AI to be so incredibly valuable to such a noble and important profession.

One of the best evidence based apps I’ve ever come across

OpenEvidence has been a total game changer in my practice! I get quick and thorough answers that are accurate and actionable. It’s been amazingly helpful with letters of medical necessity and appeals. And the best part is that it’s free!

I can’t even get the app to open

This app has been a game changer and has become my go to reference when I encounter something in my practice that I have not delt with before. I still collaborate with my specialist colleagues but now when I do, I generally have a plan I intend to take and just need to verify it with my specialist. I also really like having some specific numbers/statistics presented by this app from real studies to use and reference when presenting a plan of action to a patient. My patients respond well to that kind of specific data.

The team has built something awesome!! If you’re someone who’s trying to look up the right thing to do and already trying to chatGPT cardiac questions- this is the best AI tool (ignore ChatGPT!!). It’s well resourced with high impact journals. It’s helped for quick summary of current evidence (with referenced journals) and especially quick for looking up new medication side effects. It’s more robust in its LLM for answering nuanced questions than the usual Cochran review/Uptodate that ones used to learning decades ago. A great equalizer for trying to synthesis best practice and when trying to pull quick things from guidelines. And supposed to be able to get CME credit in the future for what one looks up also! Great starting point for being able to jump to a journal reference quickly…
