Comments:
167 attendees rated this session (approximately 50% of registrants) and over 75% rated it high and about 60% made written comments. Most were very appreciative of the clinical practice guidelines, the case studies as examples and the demonstration of accessing them by smart phone. A few found this took away from the talk either being distracted by the activity or not being to access through the Conference Wifi or who did not have a phone to access. It seems many are ready to use these guidelines in their work right away.
