So it may come as no surprise that there are serious and educational videos to be found here. One video comes from the UK and covers <a title=\"Cardiovascular examination\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dp5m2tXHDmA\" target=\"_blank\">cardiovascular examination<\/a>.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The feature is short and lasts just under seven minutes and is clear and easy to follow. There are other associated examination videos and this can be a useful and practical revision aid.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>A good example of an organisational website is the UK-based <a title=\"Foundation for learning disabilities\" href=\"http:\/\/www.learningdisabilities.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Foundation for People with Learning Disabilities&#8217;<\/a> site. It is easy to use, information packed, and simple to navigate, with clearly defined subsections such as publications and news. You can subscribe to a newsletter as well as access to a number of publications. The news archive is regularly updated, a site search is offered, and there is also an excellent statistics section.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Better testing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is not always easy to interpret laboratory diagnostic tests, and it is always nice to be able to refer to a clear, self explanatory text. It may well be that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bettertesting.org.uk\">www.bettertesting.org.uk<\/a> offers a potential solution. This British based site is ideal for primary care users, although I am sure a wider audience may be more interested. Clicking on the topics section, gives you a list of what is available and they are common topics, discussing familiar problems and after reading the topics, hopefully you will find straightforward advice. This is a text based resource, nothing flashy, but contains good, and sensible, information.<\/p>\n<p>From Canada, <a title=\"palliative info\" href=\"http:\/\/palliative.info\/pages\/TeachingMaterial.htm\" target=\"_blank\">www.palliative.info<\/a> houses a very useful collection of presentational teaching materials about palliative care. They can be used for self teaching or group teaching and covers a wide area within palliative care. Most of the file formats are PowerPoints, (though there are some PDFs) and can be viewed online or saved for offline use.<\/p>\n<p>All the presentations are clearly catalogued and a few clicks later, the presentation can be viewed without much effort. Apart from the file format, the authors and titles are clearly listed, making this an effective educational resource.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Brown, general practitioner Leeds, UK.<\/p>\n<p>You can comment on these websites on this blog and suggest others to be included in future Netlines.
