Systematic Reviews4:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Systematic Reviews
The volume of clinical research evidence is rapidly growing, and clinicians may find multiple research studies addressing the same clinical question. A systematic review answers a clinical question by finding and evaluating all available research evidence. It is a form of research that provides a summery of clinical studies on a specific clinical question, using explicit methods to identify relevant studies, critically appraise their quality, and synthesize the evidence. Clinicians may use systematic reviews to inform patient care decisions. The session will discuss the basic principles of systematic reviews and differences between systematic reviews and other types of reviews. It will review resources for systematic reviews and introduce the steps taken to conduct a systematic review on a given clinical question.
Learning Objectives:
• State the differences between a narrative review, systematic review, and meta-analysis
• Understand the importance of systematic reviews in evidence-based practice
• Review various ways to locate systematic reviews
• Describe the steps required to complete a systematic review
