Antenatal and pregnancy care - Annual Evidence Update 29 September 2008
Antenatal and pregnancy care (Women's Health Specialist Library)
http://www.library.nhs.uk/womenshealth
Focusing on antenatal and pregnancy care, this Annual Evidence Update from the Women’s Health Specialist Library aims to provide clinicians with the most up-to-date knowledge on the antenatal and pregnancy care offered to pregnant women. The update brings together the results of a comprehensive literature search for new research published since July 2007 - building on last year’s update and adding any new evidence identified from the up-to-date literature search. We know that it is very difficult for busy clinicians to keep up-to-date with the huge volume of literature that is published each year and so the Women's Health Specialist Library does this for you so that you don't have to!
The National Library for Health (NLH) Specialist Libraries have been developed to identify and meet the information needs of particular communities of practice. They are web-based collections containing clinical and non-clinical information on the major health priority areas. Each NLH Specialist Library identifies and provides access to quality assessed information of relevance to the community that it serves. An aspect of this involves the production of Annual Evidence Updates, which aim to highlight the best current evidence for selected healthcare topics. Annual Evidence Updates consist of the good quality evidence from a search of research evidence on a particular topic over a 12 month period, plus user-friendly summaries written by relevant experts, and links to guidelines, secondary research and primary research, if applicable. All information included in Annual Evidence Updates has been subject to rigorous selection criteria.
