Dear %%firstname%%,

15 July 2011

This week sees the launch of Pulse-Learning, our new learning resource for GPs containing over 200 clinical, GP commissioning and practice business CPD modules.

If you’re one of the thousands of GPs who earns CPD credits from your reading in Pulse, you can still go to Pulse-Learning to complete your free CPD assessment any time in the two weeks after publication – simply register as a free member.

But don’t forget to get a taste of the benefits of premium membership by trying out our free sample premium module on polymyalgia rheumatica – it’s based on real-life patient scenarios and covers all the key practice-changing tips from the first ever major guideline on PMR.

	GP debunks water advice

	Thiazide diuretics prescribed in the elderly treble the likelihood of a fall in the first month of exposure, suggested a UK general practice study published this week. Many medicines act differently in older patients and that issue- coupled with polypharmacy – prompted our recent CPD series on prescribing in older patients, which includes an article on antihypertensives.

	This week sees the last of our popular series Skin Differentials – in which GP and hospital practitioner in dermatology Dr Andy Jordan compares two skin conditions which appear similar but have often very different prognoses and treatments. The last is on viral hand warts versus palmar keratoderma.

And take a look at our range of clinical skills videos, including GP minor surgeon Dr Soon Lim’s refresher on joint injections for golfer’s elbow.
