Case Study: Asian Hospital and Medical Center achieves lower ICU mortality and better patient outcomes with Wolters Kluwer UpToDate

UpToDate helps Philippines' Asian Hospital and Medical Center reduce ICU mortality, treat COVID-19 patients, and improve patient outcomes

Asian Hospital and Medical Center, a premier tertiary hospital in the Philippines, needed faster, more reliable clinical references to support evidence-based decision-making, reduce care variability, and strengthen its clinical effectiveness program. To address this challenge, the hospital adopted Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions’ UpToDate in 2018.

With Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions’ UpToDate, AHMC’s clinicians gained daily updated, easy-to-access evidence to support ICU care, COVID-19 treatment, policy development, and bedside teaching. The hospital reported a downward trend in ICU mortality, improved patient outcomes, and better healthcare worker safety during COVID-19, with more harmonized care and consistent drug information through integration with Lexicomp.
