KC research articles

[Lynn White]

Hi All

I know there has been some talk on the forums on lack of KC research in hospitals etc. I would just like to point out that search engines like google generally only pick up more popular websites. Research tends to show up on academic search engines which look at professional journals.

If you look on the ICF website resources pages http://ic-f.org/?page_id=311 you will find links to most research journals and thousands of KC related papers. Unfortunately, you do have to pay for full texts but abstracts are free and they tend to tell you the main points anyway!

Hospitals in the UK do research KC, as well as University departments. This is somewhat different to looking at the way KC is managed in the NHS, which is more of a political issue.

Thanks for that, Lynn. Actually I had been thinking for a while of suggesting to John that he create a similar section on this site. Maybe he will read this
