UpToDate is the most trusted evidence-based clinical decision support resource at the point of care

UpToDate authors and editors synthesize the available clinical evidence and best clinical practices to help you provide high quality care to your patients and high standards of research.
Opening Free Uptodate Account
As you might know we tried to announce free Amboss and uptodate accounts but Account Credentials tend to get monopolized after few hours of announcement. So we decided to let you know how to open accounts of your own ( using an institutional access).
There are institutions in Ethiopia who formally pay for uptodate access and Tiqur Anbessa Specialized hospital is one of them. The side effects of opening an account this way is that you have to continually prove your affiliation with the hospital in a certain interval. That means that you will need to go Tiqur Anbessa Specialized hospital physically and connect with one random Wi-Fi there every several months to keep using the account.
Account Opening Steps :-
Step 1. Go to Tiqur Anbessa specialized hospital
Step 2. Connect to any Wi-Fi ( there are so many Wi-Fi networks in the compound so just choose one )
Step 3. Insert a proxy 10.90.10.70 and Port 8080
Step 4. Temporarily disable vpns, if you use any,
Step 5. Go to https://www.uptodate.com/contents/search
Step 6. Click on register
Step 7. Open an account & you are good to go
Optional Step . If you want offline access Download the official app, enter your credentials ( username and password), go to menu & press offline contents
– You will be able to use your account for several months. Then When the app tells you to prove your affiliation with TASH just drop by and connect to one Wi-Fi and open uptodate while connected. This will be enough to renew your access.
Remember that you can go to other institutions with institutional access to Uptodate and follow specific instructions provided by the institutions to get access.
