The National Library of Medicine (NLM) REMM (Radiation Emergency Medical Management) has released new online and mobile versions.

Key updates include:

1. Mobile REMM: updated content for Android (new), iPhone, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile
2. Nuclear Reactor Accidents: new content and references
3. Potassium Iodide: new content and references
4. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): 14 new pages with photos
5. Seven new video screencast tutorials explaining key REMM interactive clinical tools

7. Simplified clinical algorithm for managing radiation exposure: new format and content

REMM seeks to:

• Provide guidance for health care providers, primarily physicians, about clinical diagnosis and treatment of radiation injury during radiological and nuclear emergencies
• Provide just-in-time, evidence-based, usable information with sufficient background and context to make complex issues understandable to those without formal radiation medicine expertise
• Provide Web-based information that is also downloadable in advance, so that it would be available during an emergency if the internet is not accessible
