PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: ImmediatePopulation: Participants were asked to rank 10 pages of website search results from Google and HoN search engines based on clinician preference. Clinicians were further asked for feedback and opinions on how they determined their ranking. Rankings of individual websites were done by visual analog scale, from 1-100, with 100 indicated as highly preferred.
