The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) launches mobile-friendly access to the websites of its award-winning bimonthly journals, American Journal of Critical Care (AJCC) and Critical Care Nurse (CCN).
When accessed from iPhones and Androids, mobile-friendly versions of AJCC, www.ajcconline.org, and CCN, www.ccnonline.org, auto-configure to the size of these smartphone screens to prevent tiling (overlapping of images). This reader-friendly interface lets users search current and previous issues and move easily between the journals.
Mobile-friendly access increases the availability of timely research in AJCC, which focuses on up-to-date clinical research, case reports, editorials and commentaries; and CCN, which offers timely hands-on information about traditional and emerging critical care issues for high acuity, progressive and critical care nurses.
Michael Muscat, AACN's publishing manager, says mobile-friendly journals offer greater convenience to busy caregivers that can enhance practice.
"Mobile-friendly access to the American Journal of Critical Care and Critical Care Nurse means nurses with iPhones and Androids can avail themselves of up-to-date clinical information. They can access this information anytime, anywhere," he explains.
For a limited time, the journals' mobile-friendly websites can be accessed from iPhones or Androids without logging in. This open access allows clinicians using these devices to easily read and share clinical information with colleagues.
