For You, Doctor
In our country, there is a lack of platforms for doctors to share their expertise and create an outreach to improve their visibility in the community of doctors and patients.
In the wake of these problems hindering growth in the medical community, we created WhiteCoats, an app designed to cater specifically to the wants and needs of doctors. The app is a unique network of doctors and for doctors that fosters peer-to-peer or community-based professional interaction amongst doctors depending on their speciality, interests, and affiliations.
It is the perfect blend of networking and collaborations for physicians as well as the medical communities. We aim to help you achieve clinical effectiveness along with professional success.
Staying updated on the latest researches in the field of medicine plays an important role in doing so. Articles published in medical journals constitute a major portion of this. (Download WhiteCoats and stay updated)
Importance of Journal Articles
They provide important information about disease trends and risk factors, outcomes of treatment or public health interventions, functional abilities, patterns of care, and health care costs and use. The different approaches to research provide additional insights.
Clinical trials can give crucial information about the efficacy and adverse effects of medical interventions by controlling the variables that could impact the results of the study, but feedback from real-world clinical experience is also vital for comparing and improving the use of drugs, vaccines, medical devices, and diagnostics.
Together, these forms of health research have led to important discoveries, the development of new therapies, and considerable improvement in health care and public health. (Download WhiteCoats and stay updated)
Problems doctors face while reading Journal Articles
Approximately 2.5 million research papers are published each year according to research conducted by the University of Ottawa. Finding researches specific to your area of speciality is a mammoth task. Here are a few problems you might’ve faced while reading journal articles.
Take up too much of your time
Doctors have a packed schedule with barely any time to spare. Finding journal articles to stay updated with the happenings in the field is a time-consuming task. Also, the average length of a research paper is 3000 words. The human brain can read only 300 words per minute. This means that you’ll need 10 minutes to read just one.
Paid articles
Another major hindrance in reading these papers is that not all of them are available to read online for free. You need to either pay for them or subscribe to the journal which also requires payment. This limits the number of researches available for reading.
Not relevant to your field of speciality
It may also happen several times that the researches you come across are in no way pertaining to your field of specialization. While it is important to have a generalized idea as to what is going on in other fields as well, it takes up a lot of time. You end up wasting time on an article that isn’t of any help to you.
