Annual Evidence Update: Hip Fracture

Annual Evidence Upate on Hip Fracture: 26-30 July 2010

An update of the evidence on this topic from NHS Evidence - trauma and orthopaedics and NHS Evidence - emergency and urgent care :

On 26 July 2010, ‘NHS Evidence - trauma and orthopaedics’ in conjunction with ‘NHS Evidence - emergency and urgent care’ will release an Annual Evidence Update on Hip Fracture. The scope of the literature search covers fractures affecting the proximal femur. This Annual Evidence Update will appeal to all health professionals, reflecting the multidisciplinary approach required across both primary and secondary care. However, there may be clinicians who are involved in the management of polytrauma and high energy injuries that affect the hip joint who will find that our update is offset from their area of interest.

www.library.nhs.uk/trauma_orthopaedics and www.library.nhs.uk/emergency.

Annual Evidence Update: Hepatitis

The Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases Specialist Collection is launching its fourth Annual Evidence Update on Hepatitis B and C on Monday 26 July 2010.

Leading experts from around the UK have read and appraised these for their validity and relevance to the busy clinician. A list of the papers deemed worthy of inclusion, along with expert commentaries by our reviewers, will be freely available on the site at from that date.

We welcome feedback about the update - please contact us with any comments on gastroliver@medsch.ucl.ac.uk.
