| pubmed-article:18005562 | pubmed:abstractText | Patients increasingly turn to the internet for health information. However, seeking valid information can be difficult because of the speed of accumulation of information and lack of control. HealthInSite, the Canadian Health Network, the Health On the Net Foundation and the QUality Information ChecKlist have created criteria to assess internet health information. The fourth semester students at the Manipal College of Medical Sciences, Pokhara, Nepal, were taught to assess health information online and to communicate the same to simulated patients. Student feedback regarding the exercise was collected using a questionnaire. | lld:pubmed |
