Congratulations to Dr. Joke Bradt!

According to news from the College of Nursing and Health Professions, the podcast of Dr. Bradt’s Cochrane Review, “Music Therapy for Acquired Brain Injury” has been recognized as having the second highest number of “listens”.

Cochrane Reviews are internationally recognised as the highest standard in evidence-based health care. The Drexel Libraries provide access to the Cochrane Library from the list of QuickLinks on the Health Sciences Libraries homepage, and from our extensive listing of databases.

The Health Sciences Libraries have chosen to subscribe to the Cochrane Library via Wiley InterScience to address access issues that have occured with our current subscription via OVID; our Wiley subscription will have no limit on simultaneous uses.

Currently, you’ll find the Wiley version of the Cochrane Library available through our lists of database (both the Medicine/Biomedical Sciences list, and the alphabetical list).  Watch for it as an addition to our homepage QuickLinks in coming weeks for fast, convenient access to the valuable evidence-based practice resource. Please note that the Cochrane Databases will be be removed from the list of databases available in OVID at the end of this month.

The Cochrane Library is a collection of databases that contain high-quality, independent evidence to inform healthcare decision-making. Cochrane reviews represent the highest level of evidence on which to base clinical treatment decisions.  The Cochrane Library also includes the Central Register of Controlled Trials, the Cochrane Methodology Register, Technology Assessments, and Economic Evaluations.  Each section can be searched by keywords or MeSH (medical subject headings); the Reviews can also be browsed by topic, by review group or alphabetically.   PDFs are provided for printing.
