This guide is for reviewers undertaking Structured Judgement Reviews (SJR's).

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in patient care can offer significant benefits. However, there is a lack of independent evaluation considering AI in use. This paper from Sujan et al., published in BMJ Health & Care Informatics, argues that consideration should be given to how AI will be incorporated into clinical processes and services. Human factors challenges that are likely to arise at this level include cognitive aspects (automation bias and human performance), handover and communication between clinicians and AI systems, situation awareness and the impact on the interaction wi- Posted

Summary of findings and recommendations People living in the poorest neighbourhoods in England will on average die seven years earlier than people living in the richest neighbourhoods. People living in poorer areas not only die sooner, but spend more of their lives with disability – an average total difference of 17 years. The Review highlights the social gradient of health inequalities - put simply, the lower one's social and economic status, the poorer one's health is likely to be. Health inequalities arise from a complex interaction of many factors – housing, income,- Posted

Key learning points An abnormal antenatal cardiotocograph (CTG) may represent chronic fetal hypoxia. Consideration should be given to the use of an antenatal CTG classification system (see example CTG sticker) and/or computerised cCTG. Intrapartum CTG classification may not be appropriate in women who are not in established labour. Where there are CTG concerns and fetal well-being cannot be further assessed, obtain senior review and consider expediting the birth. Clear communication with the woman giving birth, birth partner(s) and maternity team is an essential- Posted

In this series of case studies, CQC highlight what providers have done to take a flexible approach to staffing. The case studies show different ways of organising services. They focus on the quality of care, patient safety, and efficiency, rather than just numbers and ratios of staff. They illustrate how providers have redesigned services to make the best use of the available range of skills and discipline or they found new ways to work with others in the local health and care system. Safe, effective staffing is about having enough people with the right skills, in the right place, at the- Posted
