I feel like I've made it to 3rd year with a good basic understanding of physiology and pathology. For diseases I am not familiar with, I know where to look on Uptodate, Access medicine, Pocket Medicine to learn more on the wards. What I do NOT know how to do is look up the most recent clinical guidelines for a particular disease, whether for diagnosis, treatment, etc.
I know about guideline.gov , but I don't know how to use correctly. For instance, let's say you had a 30 y.o. female pt. with confirmed cystitis who you now want to treat. If you navigate on website guidelines-->treatment/intervention-->diseases--> female urogenital diseases, there is no information on the hypothetical example of cystitis. Am I doing something wrong?
How do you personally find the most recent treatment guidelines with simplicity, ease, and relevance? What other sources do you use to find guidelines?
