Information regarding adverse effects of medications is available from many sources and in multiple formats (i.e., print, CD-ROM, online). Table 25.7 lists selected sources of ADR information. To assist in ADR detection, evaluation, and management, critical data regarding adverse reactions are needed (Table 25.8). 

In today s world, there are many mediums through which people leam books, magazines, lectures, videos, CDs, CD-ROM, online tutorials, mentorships, manuals, etc. Each of these provides a solid foundation depending on the needs of the student. For most, an instructor-led class still works best. The instructor needs to be an expert in the field of gas monitoring, as well as experienced and skilled on the use of the produces). Live, instructor-led classes should be varied based on the audience and desired educational outcome.

Most database users do not know how the data are organized in a database system (DBS) they depend solely on the application programs. This is sufficient for most database searches where users can receive large amounts of results quickly and easily, e.g., on literature or other information. Nevertheless, a basic knowledge on where and how to find deeper or more detailed information is quite useful. Due to their complex nature, comprehensive searches (e.g., for processes or patents) are not recommended for beginners. However, most local (in-house), online, and CD-ROM databases provide extensive tutorials and help functions that are specific to the database, and that give a substantial introduction into database searching.

It is estimated that over 6000 databases exist either as online or portable types, eg, CD-ROM. Of the total, only about 60 primarily cover chemicals... 

Many database producers provide online access to thek databases or distribute thek databases on compact disc read-only-memory (CD-ROM) and so are also considered vendors or producer/vendors. Whereas numerical growth in vendors is indicated (Fig. 1), the success of the database industry is largely a result of the transition of the information industry from paper-based to computer-based services (see Computer technology Informiation RETRIEVAL, Inforitation STORAGE MATERIALS). Thus industry growth can also be measured in terms of the increase in use of computer-readable databases as exemplified by the number of searches. 

Electronic mail and electronic conferencing services are not counted as separate databases, but when such electronic services are included with a database they are counted as aspects of the associated database and the database is classified accordingly. Several commercial online services make software databases available online, eg, the Microsoft Programmers Library, MacTutor, and Atari RoundTable. Several producers offer CD-ROM databases containing software. Such software databases contain the coding and documentation for software packages and so are classified as software databases. These are different from directories of software that are classed as directory databases. 

Vendors. Database vendors provide value added processing of databases and offer search services, online and/or batch, or distribute CD-ROM products to database users. Vendors also provide the technology for accessing databases. 

A bundle of subscription sendees of more than 50 databases on occupational health and safety information, are fully operable in both English and French. Contains over 70,000 MSDSs as well as CHEMINFO database of hazardous information on over 1,044 chemicals. Available online through CCINFOline on CD-ROM through CCINFOdisc. 

The CESARS database contains comprehensive environmental and health information on chemicals. It provides detailed descriptions of chemical toxicity to humans, mammals, aquatic and plant life, as well as data on physical chemical properties, and environmental fate and persistence. Each record consists of chemical identification information and provides descriptive data on up to 23 topic areas, ranging from chemical properties to toxicity to environmental transport and fate. Records are in English. Available online through CCINFOline from the Canadian Centre For Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) and Chemical Information System (CIS) on CD-ROM through CCIN-FOdisc. 

Contains information drawn from data compiled by the National Toxicology Program (NTP), which coordinates and provides information about potentially toxic chemicals with potential for human exposure to regulatoiy and research agencies. Contains information on 2,280 chemicals drawn from literature. The records closely resemble an MSDSformat. Print, CD-ROM and online interactive versions available from the Coast Guard and commercial sources.

Available online, CD-ROM and computer tape from NIOSH and from commercial database vendors. 

Databases are resources that contain environmental information in various fields. Databases may be available from government or educational institutions online or by inquiry, or may be available from commercial establishments on-line or CD-ROM. Some databases are essentially electronic entries to library catalogs and also provide access to full text articles and/or direct entry to publishers Web sites.
