In this paper, we describe underlying model for aims facilitate search clinicians' needs. This paper reviews studies needs clinicians, describes principles retrieval, examines role standardized terminologies play in integration between clinical literature resources, as well retrieval process. also digital library supports systems with sources, making use available electronic medical record enhance retrieval. builds several different, previously developed techniques identify themes specific data.
