Note: we are still waiting on access to two Oxford Textbooks, Oxford Textbook
of Geriatric Medicine and Oxford Textbook of Fundamentals of Surgery so will
provide an update once they become available. Please also note that the new
edition of Drugs in Pregnancy and Lactation (12th ed) by Briggs has also been
purchased but we do not expect this to become available until around April or May. Using Technology Enabled Care in Practice NHS Education for Scotland have developed a new eLearning resource 'Using Technology Enabled Care in Practice'. This online learning programme will help staff increase their knowledge and understanding of the use of technology in the health and care sectors. This eLearning follows on from the ‘Introduction to Technology Enabled Care’ module and will show how to use Technology Enabled Care in practice . Both resources are available on Turas Learn, the learning platform for health and social care staff. A Turas account is required to access the eLearning. NIHR Patient experience
From the moment of diagnosis to the provision of support, understanding patient experience is a key step to improving quality of care. An evidence-based approach to patient experience can help ensure health and care services listen to and work with patients to improve the experience of care. This Collection brings together NIHR research relating to patient experience. The Alerts explore personalised rehabilitation, mental health, decision aids and health inequalities and cover a range of health conditions such as stroke, anorexia, multiple sclerosis and type 2 diabetes. We asked a number of health and social care professionals, patients and carers to comment on selected Alerts that are relevant and important to them. Their commentary provides an interesting insight and highlights what we can learn from the research summarised in the Alerts.

Health-related misinformation risks exacerbating the COVID- 19 public health crisis if it leads the public to refuse treatment when needed, not follow official guidance, such as policies on social distancing and mask-wearing, or even to use harmful ‘miracle’ cures.
Several large-scale research projects have started during the crisis with the aim of understanding the nature, prevalence and spread of health-related misinformation online. However, relatively little is known about who is vulnerable to believing false information and why. This is crucial for developing more targeted and effective interventions which tackle the root causes of misinformation rather than just its symptoms. To address this gap, researchers from The Alan Turing Institute’s public policy programme have conducted original research using a survey and assessments to understand (1) which individuals are most vulnerable to believing health-related falsities and (2) the role played by the content that individuals are exposed to. Public Health Scotland COVID-19 Research Repository Public Health Scotland have created a COVID-19 Research Repository which contains a comprehensive collection of Scottish COVID-19 research. This includes research about COVID-19 in Scotland as well as research on COVID-19 undertaken by Scottish researchers..
The Knowledge Network Impact Survey
The short survey is still open for comments and feedback.

Spotlight
Spotlight on... Child Health
The Mark Allen Group has produced a summary
of articles from healthcare journals, featuring key
research and information on Child Health.
People with chronic fatigue syndrome want to be
taken seriously and to receive personalised,
empathetic care
This NIHR alert discusses the experiences of
people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME and
a new study which explored patients' views on
the care they would like to receive. Researchers
pooled data from 47 studies on patients'
experiences of CFS/ME and their relationships
with healthcare professionals. They found that
people with CFS/ME wanted a personalised
approach, and for doctors to provide a sense of
safety to allow them to work through complex
issues. But they often felt invisible and
dismissed by doctors.
