Things in the library 9 May

Things to use
Recent paediatric systematic reviews are sent to me via a notification from TRIP Database (see below). Although you don't need to register to use TRIP, if you do it is helps you keep up to date with new research based on your clinical speciality and/or specific topics of interest. Each month, they identify new content focused on your interests and email these to you.
SCH is registered with TRIP so you can easily access your institution’s full-text via TRIP and your OpenAthens account. Many clinicians find it useful to keep a record of their activity  on TRIP. This may be for CPD/CME purposes or simple curiosity. You can also sign in with Twitter or Facebook if you like to link your resources.

Things to download

From September 2013 the print version of the BNF will be distributed by NICE annually instead of every 6 months so the next print copy will therefore be distributed in September 2014. The British National Formulary for children (BNFC) will continue to be distributed annually.

Many clinicians are choosing to access the BNF in digital formats. NICE's BNF and BNFC apps and BNF and BNFC content on NICE Evidence are updated monthly, unlike the print version, making them the easiest way to keep up-to-date. The apps available on smartphones and tablets can be used conveniently without an internet connection. In order to access these you need a NHS OpenAthens account available here

Journal Club is on Thursday 15th May  at 8.00-9.00  in the Clinical Skills Facility F Floor Stephenson Wing  -the paper presented for discussion this week is

"Use of macrolides in mother and child and risk of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis" 

Article accessible here

Journal Club is open to all health professionals in SCH and is a fun, informal way of learning to criticise papers and gather evidence to change practice.At each meeting a speaker presents a critical appraisal of a research paper,  using a recognised appraisal tool such as CASP or the GATE frame.Group members then have an informal discussion to determine whether or not current practice should be altered in light of the presenter's findings. If you do not get a chance to read the paper do not worry just come along.
Muffins and drinks are provided at every meeting.
