Professional and clinical care researchers in the medical sector need up to the minute information from both internal and external sources to ensure that they can properly power critical decisions in patient matters. Oracle Secure Enterprise Search provides unparalleled access to internal content sources and when paired with MuseConnect for Oracle, by MuseGlobal, the two systems work together to provide a solution that can conduct a comprehensive search of all-important sources with a single user activity, making the research "source complete".

For example, a medical resident at an research hospital is tasked with looking for information in research case histories, bodies of pharma research, and the mainstream media resources that is critical to a case they are working on — perhaps they need to identify recent trends in patient outcomes for off-label use of a certain drug family. The researcher might have many tools available for their use — internal repositories of content searchable thru Oracle Secure Enterprise Search, repositories searchable via other enterprise search platforms, information from public medicine databases, open web sources, even blogs. With no shortage of available resources from which to choose, the researcher must decide which to use, and must prioritize them, choosing which to use first.

An exhaustive research session might involve two-dozen or more sources and perhaps hundreds of case studies, articles and blog entries. Each source is hosted on a platform that is different, with different controls, different options for use, and different methods for presenting the information contained within. Moving from one source to another requires the user to navigate to the source, navigate thru that sources interface before interacting with the content available to them — possibly de-focusing the researcher from the information because of the necessity of constantly refocusing their attention on changing information tools. As deadlines approach, the worker may have to choose some sources over others and may miss critical information that is needed to make an appropriate patient care plan.

Utilizing Oracle Secure Enterprise Search platform with the MuseConnect for Oracle, a single research action can retrieve information from internal, external, commercial, public, editorial, and self-published sources and present that information in a comprehensive, easy-to-understand interface. Having a 'single view' of the data from all sources means that the knowledge worker can focus on the information, and not the tools, making it easy to spot subtle, but important nuances uncovered from many different sources.

Valuable content made easily accessible — that's the power of Oracle Secure Enterprise Search platform with MuseConnect for Oracle.
