Cliniva China Content Updates Policy

Medical content has a six-month review target and may be reviewed sooner when evidence, guidance, or safety information changes.

Scheduled and event-triggered review

Cliniva targets a new medical review within six months of the prior approval. This is a maximum operating target, not a claim that evidence changes only twice a year or that every non-medical page needs the same review schedule.

A review starts earlier when a major guideline changes, a regulator or public-health body issues relevant safety information, a relied-on source is corrected or withdrawn, new high-quality evidence could alter the page, or a credible reader report identifies a material problem.

Handling an expired medical review

When medical approval expires, the page is removed from indexable publication or clearly placed in an update-in-progress state until a matching current review exists. Cliniva does not leave an expired review label in place as if it remained current.

Archived and retired content

Content may be archived when it is obsolete, duplicative, unsupported, or no longer useful. Archived pages are not presented as current guidance; where appropriate, readers are directed to a current replacement and the old canonical is handled consistently.

Does this policy require partner-hospital medical approval?

No. It is an operational policy, not medical guidance. Medical articles follow the separate medical review policy.
