  3. PubMed Topic Searches • These topic based searches enable users to link through to the PubMed database and run a real time automated search • This means that each time the search is run it will include the new items being entered on the PubMed database (ie, always current) • PubMed is a free, publicly available database.

Quality processes • All materials on the website are developed and peer reviewed by Australian health professionals to ensure: • that they relate to palliative care • that they are trustworthy and reflect the best available evidence • that where possible the evidence relates to rigorous research work.
