Content

What type of content do I have access to?

As a Practical Reviews subscriber, you have unlimited access to our entire content library of all 23 medical and dental specialties we offer.


How often will I receive updated content?

Practical Reviews issues are published monthly.


How will I know when I have updated content available?

You will receive a monthly email notification to the email address listed on your account. If you are an audio CD subscriber, you will receive your CDs in the mail as new issues are published.


How far back can I see content?

Upon initial subscription date, you will receive access to our entire content library. Please note: only articles published in the last 24 months have CME active credits available.


How do I add an article to my Favorites?

While viewing an article, you can add it to your Favorites page to bookmark for later by selecting Favorite at the top of the article. This article can then be found on your Favorites page until you choose to delete it.


What do the icons represent throughout the site?

Image included in this article for reference

CE Earned – indicates you have already earned credits on this article

Key Article - The golden key indicates reviews the Coordinator Editor (who hand selects articles each month) chooses  as “key articles” to read within that issue. These are usually hot topics, new technology, groundbreaking results, or even validation of previous findings.


How can I search for a specific topic?

With access to the entire medical/dental library, your customized search is easier than ever by topic, specialty and credit category. Begin your search in the Search bar located in the top right corner of every page.

Quiz

How can I take a quiz?

You can take a quiz a few different ways. First option: select Take this Issue Quiz at the top of your issue and take all of the questions at once. Second option: answer the Article Questions one at a time at the bottom of each article. If you begin taking an article quiz, you may not swap to taking the issue quiz (or vice versa) — you must finish the quiz in the format you begin.

An alternative option: you can take a compiled quiz comprised of all your pre-selected Favorite articles. Select the Favorites tab and click Take Compiled Quiz at the top of the page.


Where is my Quiz Code?

Your quiz code is located on the quiz sheet from the issue you download online or within your monthly print/audio CD subscription. However, a quiz code is not required to take a quiz. See “How can I take a quiz?” to take a quiz without a quiz code.

Credits

How many credits can I earn in a year?

You can earn an unlimited number of CE credits in a year with your Practical Reviews subscription.


Where can I find how many credits I have earned?

Credits earned this calendar year to-date are easily referenced on the Track Credits page. Please note: Credits entered from other sources are not included in your total credits earned.


How can I tell if I have already earned credits for an article?

A checkmark next to the article name indicates that you have already earned any available credit.

How can I print a certificate?

On the Track Credits page, select your required criteria (i.e. date range, specialty and/or credit category), select preferred certificate type (i.e. “Summary Certificate” with high level summary or “Detail Certificate” with activities broken out), then click Download Certificate tocreate a PDF certificate you can print or share digitally.


If I have more than one product from Oakstone, will I see credits earned from those products on the Track Credits page, too?

Yes, your Track Credits page is your one-top resource for all CE earned using Oakstone products, with the exception of CMEinfo standalone programs.


How can I track credits from other sources?

On the Track Credits page, simply click the Add/View Credits from Other Sources button which allows you to add as many external credits as you wish. Please note that because we cannot validate non-Oakstone activities, credits entered here cannot be claimed when you create certificates, and they will not be included in your annual credit total.

My Account

Where can I view My Account information?

Select the dropdown menu near your name in the top left corner of any page and click My Account.


Why do you ask for my birth date and board certification details on My Account?

Some of Oakstone’s activities require your participation data be reported to your ABMS member board and/or the activity provider. To report your participation, we need additional information. Your information will only be shared with the ABMS member board through the ACCME PAR’s website or the activity provider for credit tracking purposes. Not all activities qualify for reporting: the accreditation tab for each activity will disclose if your data will be shared. You can also read our privacy policy for additional details on how we utilize your customer information.


How can I edit information listed on My Account?

You may edit your Phone Number and Date of Birth information. Please call 800-633-4743 so one of our Customer Service Specialists can assist you in updating all other fields.


How can I change my password?

You can change your password by clicking on the Forgot Password? link below the login fields on www.access.oakstone.com. Upon entering your email address, you will receive an email with instructions on how to reset your password.

Mobile App

How do I download the mobile app?

Visit your app store and download the Practical Reviews app to your mobile device.

Get it on Google Play


How can I access the audio on the mobile app?

Once logged into the Practical Reviews app, select your specialty, the issue you’d like to view, and accept the Disclosure Agreement. On the next screen, at the top left, you should see an option that says Add to Playlist. This is how you obtain the audio and the quiz for a particular issue.

After selecting Add to Playlist, a question and three options will appear. Yes means the audio and quiz will stream from our servers, as long as you have an uninterrupted internet connection; and No cancels the download.


How can I download the audio to my iPhone for one or more Practical Reviews issues instead of using the mobile app?

Note: This process requires the iOS Podcast app. If you do not have the iOS Podcast app, you can download it for free from the App Store.

Once logged into PracticalReviews.com from your mobile browser, select a volume and issue to review, and you will see download options at the top of the issue index page. Click on Enhanced Podcast. The podcast window will open and ask if you want to add the podcast. Choose Subscribe. You will then see the name of the volume and issue pop up, and the download will begin.

Once the download process is complete, the screen will light up and you will see your issue on the right, with a blue dot to the left, which means the issue has downloaded completely.

When you click on the title of the issue on the right, the blue dot will change to a speaker icon and the issue will play continuously through the last article.

Note: For help downloading an issue via Windows Media, please contact a Customer Service Specialist by calling 800-633-4743.
