Abstract:

The Combined Health Information Database (CHID) is a bibliographic database produced by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). This database provides titles, abstracts, and availability information for health information and health education resources. The following topics are covered by this database:

          AIDS Education, Alzheimer's Disease, Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, Cancer Patient Education, Cancer Prevention and Control, Comprehensive School Health, Deafness and Communication Disorders, Diabetes, Digestive Diseases, Disease Prevention / Health Promotion, Epilepsy Education and Prevention Activities, Health Promotion and Education, Kidney and Urologic Diseases, Maternal and Child Health, Medical Genetics and Rare Disorders, Oral Health, Prenatal Smoking Cessation, and Weight Control.

          The value of this database is that it lists a wealth of health promotion and education materials and program descriptions that are not indexed elsewhere. New records are added quarterly and current listings are checked regularly to help ensure that all entries are up to date and still available from their original sources. Some older records are retained for archival purposes. CHID is updated four times a year. The updated database is available by the end of these months: January, April, July, and October.
