With COVID and all the changes that have happened, the ability to remotely access your clinical system can provide effective practice management, provide better patient and staff safety and enable resilience in your practice.
But many areas are limited by how quickly this can be enabled. In this episode, we talk with Dr Nicholas Grundy (current chair of GPSurvival and Richmond GP alliance) about using Real VNC to enable remote access to his practice.
Neither of us work or are affiliated with Real VNC.
We cover:
Why his practice and area struggled to get access
How he went about testing solutions and found Real VNC
How Real VNC works
Logistic and security measures to be safe
Cost of the system and how to get it for free

FODMAPS are complex carbohydrate chains with some evidence linked as triggers for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
Avoiding FODMAPS can help a patient experience fewer symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits.
Understanding which foods have FODMAPS, however, is complex. This episode looks at how using an app this can be supported, including some extra information about games in the app and cautions on using it.

What is the best haematology app?
Watch this review of Buku Haematology - a useful clinical reference resource that details how to manage haematological investigation results, work up for common haematological conditions and emergencies.
With a clean interface and clear explanations and reference to BMJ, CKS and national guidance it really is a valuable resource for anyone in primary care.
The highs and lows section covers individual test results and the implications of them to help clinicians understand how to manage the results in the context of each patient.
The coagulation section gives useful guides on problems with coagulation including FAQs on DOACs like Rivaroxaban.
The workup section explains common presentations and considerations for haematological conditions and how to manage from a primary care perspective and what point to refer.
The obstetric section has useful criteria for managing anaemia in pregnancy. The emergency section helps guide how to manage complex haematological emergencies.
Created by Dr Alex Langridge and Prof Steven O'Brian it really is a useful app that is updated in content on a regular basis.

Hi #eGPlearners , with millions of apps out there how do you know which ones you should use. Try one of my top 5 apps as a must own GP app- the Nottinghamshire LMC app.
Watch the video here and do not forget to subscribe to be the first to see future episodes.
The Nottinghamshire LMC app in my view is a must own GP app.
It contains multiple resources useful for any GP at any stage of their career. Linking to BMA resources means that although Nottinghamshire centric, the app is relevant to GPs in any geographic location. This includes a guidance section which is kept up to date, resources for partners, trainees, practice managers, and sessional GPs.
The app contains useful news links and contact details including local LMC events (Nottinghamshire focused).
The SHOP library allows you to share experience and innovation while the services section links to valuable resources offered by the LMC.
Finally, the Wellbeing section is diverse with multiple resources, tools, and links to financial, mental health, well-being, support and self-development help.
I find this a truly useful app with multiple resources. One development could be to enhance reporting like the BEAM to LMC app offered by the Londonwide LMC.
Take a look and download the app from the link here.

Are you hoping for a Dry January?
Hi #eGPlearners - are you hoping for a Dry January? Check out this Dry January app review on how the app works and whether it is useful for individuals or patients.
Click on the image below to see the full video or read below.
It is reasonable to assume that alcohol drinking increases over December with Christmas parties, festive celebrations over the holiday period and New Years which also culminate in lesser-known occasions like Black eye Friday.
But with a new year comes change and a slew of new years resolutions. Many may participate in Dry January - where you do not drink alcohol for the whole month. To support people, the Alcohol Change UK charity has created the Dry January app, but is it any good?
The app is easy and free to download. It asks for your current drinking habits and lets you add this quickly and easily. Presenting you with an approximate unit intake, cost and calorie intake per week is also a good set of metrics to use.
The app does ask if you want to contribute and savings you make as a pledge. I think this is reasonable as the Alcohol Charity UK have created this app for free and offer you the choice. Better yet- even if you pledge it is only a percentage of the savings you have made so technically you are not paying for it.
Logging your habits is easy and customisable. The main dashboard provides clear information and some resources to support you.
However, I think the app could be improved. while Dry January can be a useful idea, for those significantly high drinkers stopping suddenly can be dangerous and clearer warnings on this would be more ideal particularly when logging your intake. Also signposting to regional support services would be a more useful way to use the app.
Overall, I like the app and think it works better than many of the tools in the patient health records I use. If it leads to a permanent change in drinking habits this can be really helpful, although it is important to remember that boom or bust methods to cut vices can sometimes lead to rebound use which can be just as damaging to a person's health. Subjectively many clinical colleagues mention higher admission rates for alcohol misuse in the first two weeks of February and Dry January may be the cause.

#TipThursday - https://egplearning.co.uk/tag/tipthursday/
eGPlearning PodBlast - Introducing the NHS App
Welcome to our deep dive episode on the upcoming NHS app - which we cover multiple areas of primary care and patient care. A highly opinionated episode which we encourage your comments and feedback on.
1.00 Thank you Sponsor - HTN The Health Tech Newspaper (HTN)- an innovative daily news and opinion website for the health tech network.
1.40 Thank you to our followers: @SonaliKinra @NottsLMC @NCGPANottm @Jacey_Melody @JThambyrajah @KalindiKrishna @RcgpFaculties @2GPs_in_a_Pod , @DME_Health, @BenXGowland , @EvilGP and @drNickHarvey -creator of Digitalis
2.25 Andy has had a cold and been on a cruise
2.40 Gandhi has also had a holiday, working on TipThursday especially the Kardia Alivekor episode with a free resource on the episode available here.
3.30 Today we are talking about the upcoming NHS app
We are going to talk about the app. This was inspired by a great article by our friends at Gizmodo. http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2018/08/exclusive-heres-what-the-new-nhs-app-will-look-like-and-why-it-could-have-been-so-much-worse/
The intentions behind the app are exactly what you might expect: Make it easier for patients to access healthcare services, cut down on administrative burden, and eventually provide a means to connect with other health apps, like Fitbit and Apple’s Health app.
Jeremy Hunt set out “8 challenges” for the app
(42.50) Summary of our views (including a compliment for Jeremy Hunt!!!!) including the issue of photo ID verification to use the app.
These are discussed in turn during the show...

Who made it?
Dr Nick Harvey is a GP partner and trainer and his team http://digitalistechnology.co.uk/about-us/
App features and observations discussed:
Any potential downsides
We would love to interview Nick Harvey or one of the Digitalis team in for interview?
AliveCor Live Unboxing
What is AliveCor?
Kardia Device and companion app for detection of Atrial Fibrillation (AF).
Some CCGs have been providing these to GP surgeries to assist with detecting AF.
Cost: $99.99
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s2CsGGYnv0
Why would we be interested in detecting AF?
AF often produces no symptoms and can be present for long periods of time (months-years) before detection and treatment. AF increases the risk of serious conditions, particularly stroke and arrhythmias.
Let’s take a look
First impressions from Andy for us - live unboxing and demonstration
More considered impressions from Andy who has used in practice
Impressions
Nicely packaged
Single sheet with 2 steps to work. VERY EASY TO USE.
Worked well and straight out of the box
Works on ANY phone or tablet device - does not require a locked down device
Can then record outcome manually in patient notes or export results as secure .pdf.
How would we use this in practice?
Quick screening of at risk patients, those where AF suspected, long term condition reviews, flu clinics?
Why you should get the flu jab by Abraham the pharmacist -
