Brief Description:
The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (also known as EBM Reviews)
includes the full text of the regularly updated systematic reviews
of the effects of healthcare prepared by The Cochrane Collaboration.
The reviews are presented in two types:
- Complete reviews - Regularly updated Cochrane
Reviews, prepared and maintained by Collaborative Review Groups
- Protocols - Protocols for reviews currently being
prepared (all include an expected date of completion). Protocols
are the background, objectives and methods of reviews in preparation.
COCH is produced by the Cochrane Collaboration -
an international network of individuals and institutions committed
to preparing, maintaining, and disseminating systematic reviews
of the effects of health care. In pursuing its aims, the Cochrane
Collaboration is guided by six principles: collaboration, building
on people's existing enthusiasm and interests, minimizing duplication
of effort, avoidance of bias, keeping up to date, and ensuring access.
