This is the first comprehensive review comparing the effectiveness and safety across the range of antipsychotics for children and young adults. The evidence on the comparative benefits and harms of antipsychotics is limited. Some SGAs have a better side effect profile than other SGAs. Additional studies using head-to-head comparisons are needed.

Although the prevalence and incidence of cognitive impairment is recognized, appropriate interventions and programmatic responses remain elusive. Quality improvements require more thorough examination of emergency department context to identify modifiable influencing factors that are transferable across settings.

Relatively low proportions of registered nurses report continuing education in informatics, but some opportunities exist to increase rates.

What is an effective way to reach out to staff, promote the library, showcase our skills, and get clinical staff involved in team projects with the library?

PurposeWhat is an effective way to reach out to staff, promote the library, showcase our skills, and get clinical staff involved in team projects with the library? SettingThe Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) Medical Library serves 11 000 staff, physicians, and residents. With funding from the Saskatchewan Health Information Resources Partnership (SHIRP), the SHR Medical Library launched a suite of eresources in September 2004. Following the launch, efforts were focused on increasing the visibility of the library. The library had new services, staff, and resources to offer the health region. Three objectives the library set out to accomplish were the need to (1) distinguish ourselves from what staff can find free on the Internet, (2) help staff navigate through the diversity of e-resources that they now had at their fingertips, and (3) make connections with staff to increase our profile. MethodThe library chose to develop infoguides as a means of accomplishing our three objectives. The intent was that these guides would be both an outreach and promotional vehicle for the library. The SHR Medical Library looked to University of British Columbia, McMaster, and Ottawa Hospital's subject guides as models. The resulting product was a series of portals that link staff to databases, e-journals, practice guidelines, statistics, government information, professional associations, and Web sites for their respective practice areas, thus offering staff a filtered blend of the best of free and fee-based resources. ResultsInitially, the infoguides were created independent of clinical staff input. Since then, our approach has shifted to include clinical staff input in the development and editing phases. The library contacts a clinical staff member of a particular practice area to gauge their interest in the project prior to developing an infoguide. Clinical input is contributed either through a spokesperson who (i) gathers suggestions from co-workers and relays them to us or (ii) critiques the infoguide after development and sends us feedback.We shifted our approach to include clinical staff involvement for two reasons: (1) We saw the outreach potential of this project. As a rela-tively new e-library, we were keen to market our services, and the clinical staff seemed equally keen to work with us and contribute their ideas. (2) It provided us with knowledge of how health professionals search for information. We could see firsthand which resources staff had been using prior to the introduction of the SHIRP suite of e-resources. ConclusionSeventeen infoguides for practice areas and four topicbased infoguides have been developed since September 2004. These include the following: acquired brain injury, clinical nutrition, clinical practice guidelines, complementary and alternative medicine, geriatrics, health administration, occupational therapy, orthopaedics, pharmacy, physiotherapy, psychiatry, respiratory therapy, and speech language pathology.Several connections have been created, and library awareness has increased amongst the clin...
