Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Surgical Education

Background:

  • The College Library launched preliminary Evidence-Based Surgery (EBS) web pages in December 1998.
  • These resources were initially disseminated through surgical e-mail discussion forums.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the initial reception and user engagement with the preliminary Evidence-Based Surgery (EBS) web pages.
  • To determine the value of continued development and updating of the EBS web pages based on early feedback.

Main Methods:

  • The preliminary EBS web pages were released to a targeted audience of surgeons and trainees.
  • User access was tracked, with over 1,600 'hits' recorded within the first four weeks of launch.

Main Results:

  • The preliminary EBS web pages achieved significant user interest, recording over 1,600 hits in their initial four weeks.

  • Feedback from the surgical community indicated positive reception and encouraged further development.

    • Conclusions:

    • The substantial initial engagement with the Evidence-Based Surgery (EBS) web pages suggests a strong user demand for such resources.
    • The positive reception validates the ongoing effort and resources required for updating and maintaining the EBS web pages.
