对402名随机选择的卫生专业人员的访谈确定了卫生专业人员用来跟上当前医学进展的信息习惯。各种信息来源的使用与他们的执业类型、专业、执业地点、专业人员的年龄和他们的初级医院的规模等因素有关。除了医学文献（最常见的来源）之外，典型的应答者每周花一到五个小时与同事讨论。他或她每年还花5至10小时参加地方专业会议，每年花5至10小时参加州会议，每年花10至15小时参加全国会议，每年花10至15小时参加各种医学院主办的教育课程。未经请求的医学文献被广泛使用，特别是那些在农村独自执业的人。
Interviews with 402 randomly selected health professionals identified the information habits health professionals used to stay abreast of current advances in medicine. The use of various information sources was related to such factors as their type of practice, specialty, location of practice, professional's age, and the size of their primary hospital. In addition to medical literature, the most common source, the typical responder spent one to five hours each week in discussions with colleagues. He or she also spent five to ten hours each year at local professional meetings, five to ten hours per year at state meetings, ten to 15 hours per year at national meetings, and ten to 15 hours per year at educational courses sponsored by various medical schools. Unsolicited medical literature was used extensively, particularly by those in rural, solo practice.
