Lippincott Advisor is an online library of evidence-based clinical reference information for nurses & nursing students. Containing drug, disease, diagnostic test, treatment, & signs & symptoms monographs, Lippincott Advisor gives nurses quick access to need-to-know information, such as side effects of certain drugs or the pathophysiology of a disease.

What makes Lippincott Advisor stand out as the best evidence-based resource on the market? There’s no need to choose from a list of books or sift through unrelated content or untrustworthy internet sources. Lippincott Advisor contains more than 3500 respected monographs & has the option to dive deeper into references, linking to PubMed abstracts, bibliographic details & even full text references where available. Lippincott Advisor provides your nurses with evidence-based need-to-know information from a source they can trust. What are evidence-based Monographs? Lippincott Advisor creates original nurse-centric content regarding a specific topic (a disease, symptom, treatment, etc.) & creates entries – called Monographs – that are easily searched & displayed so the nurse can find what they need immediately. What if we need a deeper understanding of the research that supports the entries? Lippincott Advisor includes full-text online access to numerous classic references, including Lippincott’s Manual of Nursing Practice (Nettina), Cardiac Nursing (Woods, et al.), Wallach’s Interpretation of Diagnostic Tests (Snyder), & Wound Care Essentials: Practice Principles (Baranoski & Ayello). Further research is supported by integrated hyperlinks to PubMed & your institution’s library holdings.
