eviQ: Cancer Resource for Primary Health Care Professionals

Funded by the Australian Government and freely available, eviQ is a web based repository providing cancer treatment information to health professionals. Information is accurate, standardised, evidence based and unbiased.

Used extensively in the hospital setting, eviQ now includes a primary care area. This point of care resource, designed to assist the busy GP or nurse includes, but is not limited to information on treatment protocols, side effects, safety alerts, clinical considerations, interactions, clinical devices, MBS item numbers, useful links, safe handling of cytotoxics, and coming soon, an opioid conversion calculator. There are communication templates also available for use between specialist and GP; these can be accessed from the primary care home page.
