If you are looking for a national or international clinical guideline, a protocol or a careSearch 2 logo pathway it’s worth remembering that Search 2.0 will search the National Library of Guidelines for guidelines published by NICE and professional bodies, both in the UK and around the world.

The Content

  • National Library of Guidelines (includes NICE Guidance) - The National Library of Guidelines (the resource formerly known as the Guidelines Finder) indexes over 2000 selected care guidelines available in fulltext format online. These are mainly fom the UK but there are some international guidelines included.
  • -National guidance on the promotion of good health and the prevention and treatment of ill-health, produced by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE).
  • - The NLH Protocols and Care Pathways Library holds over 250 Integrated Care Pathways (ICPs) submitted by NHS organisations, as well as useful material related to ICP development and appraisal.

Simple Search

Guidelines Check BoxThe easiest way to search is to use the search box at the top of the National Library for Health home page (illustrated to the left).

From here you can use the usual linking terms to define your search:

  • AND - to make sure the words used appear in the results - this will limit your search results.
  • OR - to create an either/or link to expand your search
  • NOT - to exclude a word from a search (this will limit your search).
  • EXACT PHRASE - by putting your search in “speech marks” you will search for the phrase as you type it. This technique also works with Google and other search engines and is a Fade top tip to find relevant material on the internet.

Limiting Your Search to Particular Resources

Guidance SearchIf you click on the Guidance (see right) link on the home page of the National Library for Health you’ll be able to select particular resources to search (illustrated below)

Selecing Guidance Resources

Advanced searches

Advanced search allows you to search for keywords in specific fields: Title; Author; Publisher; Date; Any (field); ISBN and ISSN, combine search terms using Boolean operators (and, or, not) and limit your searches by date.

To search just for guidelines, don’t forget to deselect all other resources in the section.

Saving Search Results

To save results requires you to be logged into Athens (which you can get from the NHS here, providing you work for the NHS). Check the check boxes of the items you want to save and then click the Save Search Results Button button. Alternatively just click on Save Search Result for individual items.

Saved Search ResultsTo retrieve items you’ve saved when you’ve logged in with your Athens password jsut click on the Saved Search Results link in the MY SEARCH section of the page.

This is also where you can find Saved Search Histories, Saved Search Criteria and your Search Profiles.

E-Mailing Search Results

You can e-mail individual search results by clicking on the More Details link. This will then bring up an e-mail form (shown below) which you can mail to yourself or a colleague you think will be interested in the item. It has space for you to add your own message.

Search 2 logoToday’s post based on the excellent material from the NLH Search 2.0 SHA Representatives group.

When to use them?

Whenever you need ready done quality synthesised reviews of the best available evidence.

The Content

  • Bandolier - advice about particular treatments for health professionals and consumers based on primary and secondary research.
  • Cochrane Library Database of Systematic Reviews - systematic reviews and protocols for future reviews.
  • Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects - abstracts of systematic reviews published in places other than the Cochrane Library Database of Systematic Reviews.
  • NHS Economic Evaluation Database - structured economic evaluations of health care interventions.
  • Health Technology Assessment Database - focussing on prevention and rehabilitation, vaccines, pharmaceuticals and devices, medical and surgical procedures and the systems within which health is protected and maintained.

Searching Evidence Based Reviews

Check the Evidence Based Reviews check box in the search box at the top of the NLH page.

EBR SearchThis will allow you to conduct a simple search across all of the evidence based review databases and materials.

As yesterday’s post suggested there are key linking phrases available to allow you to define the relationship between concepts in your search. As a reminder we’ve detailed them again below.

  • AND - to make sure the words used appear in the results - this will limit your search results.
  • OR - to create an either/or link to expand your search
  • NOT - to exclude a word from a search (this will limit your search).
  • EXACT PHRASE - by putting your search in “speech marks” you will search for the phrase as you type it. This technique also works with Google and other search engines and is a Fade top tip to find relevant material on the internet.

Searching indivdual or Multiple Evidence Based Reviews Whilst Ignoring Others

If you click on the Evidence Based Reviews Link (as illustrated below)

EBR

You will be taken to a specific Evidence Based Reviews Search where you can use the check boxes to select the resources as illustrated below. The usual range of linking terms are available to design your search to bring back optimum results (as detailed above).

EBR Search Selection

Advanced searches can also be run using the same set of parameters as described yesterday.

Saving Search Results

To save results requires you to be logged into Athens (which you can get from the NHS here, providing you work for the NHS). Check the check boxes of the items you want to save and then click the Save Search Results Button button. Alternatively just click on Save Search Result for individual items.

Saved Search ResultsTo retrieve items you’ve saved when you’ve logged in with your Athens password jsut click on the Saved Search Results link in the MY SEARCH section of the page.

This is also where you can find Saved Search Histories, Saved Search Criteria and your Search Profiles.

E-Mailing Search Results

You can e-mail individual search results by clicking on the More Details link. This will then bring up an e-mail form (shown below) which you can mail to yourself or a colleague you think will be interested in the item. It has space for you to add your own message.

Search 2 logoOK it’s 7 days to go to the implementation of Search 2.0 the new route to literature searching in the NHS from the National Library for Health. So we thought we dust off the guides from the NLH Search 2.0 SHA Representatives group (this post is from Resource Guide 1: Overview), adapt the guides where we felt we needed to and give you seven days worth of tip off of the goodness to come. Never fear though, if things aren’t as smooth as we hope, the Dialog databases haven’t gone anywhere for the moment (as for the red spot search logo we don’t know the reasons behind it either but any excuse to get in a few minutes practice for this year’s International Talk Like a Pirate Day! Clearly red is the new black!)

Searching the National Library for Health

Currently there are six elements (with a seventh in development) of the library that you can search:

  1. Evidence based reviews - synthesising known evidence, these secondary sources e.g. the Cochrane Library should be used when you want a quality review of the best available evidence.
  2. Guidance - if you are looking for international, national guidelines or care pathways, start here.
  3. Specialist Libraries - offering rapid access to the latest quality evidence by patient group or type of service.
  4. Books, Journals and Healthcare Databases (Bibliographic Databases) - use them when you need to search the literature (these will need an Athens password which you can get from the NHS here, providing you work for the service).
  5. Images - quality medical images/photos/graphics.
  6. For Patients - quality assured information for patients.
  7. Drugs Resource - is under development… as soon as we can tell you about it, we will.

Searching the Resources

Easy Search

The search box appears at the top of the National Library for Health page. You can use the check boxes to select the types of resources you want to search.

Search 2.0 Search Box

you can construct your search using the following linking terms:

  • AND - to make sure the words used appear in the results - this will limit your search results.
  • OR - to create an either/or link to expand your search
  • NOT - to exclude a word from a search (this will limit your search).
  • EXACT PHRASE - by putting your search in “speech marks” you will search for the phrase as you type it. This technique also works with Google and other search engines and is a Fade top tip to find relevant material on the internet.

Advanced Search

The advanced search option allows you to select from the range of NLH resources for inclusion in your search. It also allows you to limit a search to materials from discrete date ranges and to particular elements of a record.

Advanced Search

If you are logged into the library you can search accross the range of journals and e-resources available to you through your Athens password.

Just hit the search button when you’re ready to search.

Search results will be displayed by type in a results bar accross the top of the page.

The added advantage with logging in is you can of course save your search to return to at any point you log-in to NLH.

Saving Search Results

To save results requires you to be logged into Athens (which you can get from the NHS here, providing you work for the NHS). Check the check boxes of the items you want to save and then click the Save Search Results Button button. Alternatively just click on Save Search Result for individual items.

Saved Search ResultsTo retrieve items you’ve saved when you’ve logged in with your Athens password jsut click on the Saved Search Results link in the MY SEARCH section of the page.

This is also where you can find Saved Search Histories, Saved Search Criteria and your Search Profiles.

E-Mailing Search Results

You can e-mail individual search results by clicking on the More Details link. This will then bring up an e-mail form (shown below) which you can mail to yourself or a colleague you think will be interested in the item. It has space for you to add your own message.
