Click Favorites to save to the default Favorites collection or on the drop down arrow to save to a previously created collection. If you don’t have an NCBI account and need help in creating one, click here and then on “Creating an NCBI Account” for more information. Contact the reference department (984-1231) if you have any questions.

The ninth edition includes several significant changes from the eighth edition, such as new recommendations on diagnosing deep vein thrombosis, and a new recommendation to use dabigatran instead of adjusted dose warfarin for stroke prophylaxis in patients with nonrheumatic atrial fibrillation.
