Med journal streams into the 21st century with Web videos

The New England Journal of Medicine's (NEJM) Web site is streaming into the 21st century by offering peer-reviewed educational videos that aim to teach procedures and specialized physical examinations. The first series of videos aim to help students, trainees, and younger physicians learn procedural techniques. The five- to eight-minute videos will be available both in a downloadable file and a version compatible with handheld devices. The videos will also be accompanied by a printable summary. They are currently available for free, but will be limited to subscribers after an introductory period. The first video covers arterial line placement and is available in the April 13 online issue. Go to the NEJM Web site to see the video.
