How to use the Resource Hub
How can I use the Resource Hub to improve my outcomes?
- Select the outcome you want to view information for. These are organised by the outcomes from the NASAN; however, we have also included an area for rabbit-specific evidence. You can choose from:
- You will find links to published evidence, Knowledge Summaries, guidelines, articles, case examples and ready-to-use resources.
- Some of these resources are directed only at dogs and cats or general surgery, however, the evidence may help you to make decisions regarding your processes in practice.
- Discuss any new evidence or resources with your team and decide on any changes that are required. You may need to investigate your audit results further and discuss them with your team to see what areas require improvement.
- You can implement any new evidence using guidelines, checklists, and further clinical audits.
If you are looking for evidence on the benefits and risks of neutering pets, then this inFOCUS spotlight covers a range of topics including age, behaviour, surgical and non-surgical options and disease risks.
Where is this information from?
These resources include:
- Available research and resources from inFOCUS.
inFOCUS is our journal watch, providing practitioners with independent summaries of the latest research that has the potential to impact patient care. We also provide guided checklists to enable you to use some of these papers as the basis of journal club discussions in your practice, and Spotlight features on specific clinically relevant topics.
- Published Knowledge Summaries from Veterinary Evidence.
Veterinary Evidence is the only free, open access, peer-reviewed journal for veterinary professionals that publishes evidence based on clinically relevant questions that respond to specific information needs. The journal is aimed at veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses, paraprofessionals and allied professions in the international veterinary community.
- Quality Improvement tools that will help you implement and monitor any changes.
Some of these resources are directed only at dogs and cats or general surgery, however, the evidence may help you to make decisions regarding your processes in practice.
