Answer

 

Although PubMed does not have a direct export to RefWorks, it's possible to create a file in PubMed that can be imported into RefWorks.

In PubMed, after selecting the references to be imported into RefWorks, select Send to > Citation manager.

After verifying the information and making a selection from the menu, click Create File. The file created will be called 'pubmed-search_name-set.nbib' and end up in the computer's downloads folder.
