Over the years GIDEON has added new features and now we’re making changes to improve access and simplify the interface.

We are rolling out a refresh of the GIDEON web app user interface that focuses on simplification.

These changes include:

Improved search

• Type down: Search terms appear as you type.
• Suggestions: Subjects related to the items you’re typing appear to easily reach the content you want.
• Unified search and diagnosis: Specify if you’re looking for a diagnosis by choosing a sign or symptom from the Clinical Presentation list.

Enhanced User Interface

• Screen size utilization: Content is centered and resized to take advantage of larger screen real estate.
• Easier to select Diseases, Drugs or  Vaccines to compare.
• Switched maps from Flash to HTML 5: HTML 5 browsers are more ubiquitous than flash plugin, and maps will now work on iPhones and iPads.
• Improving interaction on mobile devices: lists have been optimized to work better on mobile devices. These are steps we’re taking to make GIDEON work easily wherever you are.
• Reduced popups: screen popups have been replaced with CSS popups which allow a one window experience on tablets.

Removed rarely used functions

• Infectious Diseases and Microbiology focus: Toxicology module removed since beta demonstrated little usage of the content.
• Travel streamlined: Travel in Infectious Diseases is focused on GIDEON content removing content available directly on CDC website.

We would love to receive feedback on these changes.
