Case Study: St. Luke's International Hospital achieves mobile access to evidence-based care with Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions' UpToDate Anywhere

St. Luke's International Hospital - Customer Case Study

St. Luke's International Hospital, a major Tokyo-based medical center, partnered with Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions to implement UpToDate Anywhere. The hospital's challenge was providing its busy physicians with fast, reliable, and mobile access to the latest evidence-based clinical information to support high-quality patient care, especially as clinicians moved between different affiliated sites.

The solution from Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions was UpToDate Anywhere, a mobile-enabled version of its clinical decision support resource. This provided clinicians with trusted, comprehensive medical content at the point of care on their smartphones and tablets. The results were significant, including a 15% increase in overall UpToDate usage and high clinician satisfaction. The mobile access empowered physicians to make confident, evidence-based decisions and improve patient safety, particularly for an aging population with complex comorbidities.
