The Deakin Centre for Quality and Risk Management in Health: A Joanna Briggs Collaborating Centre
Systematic reviews are a comprehensive survey of a focussed question in which all of the primary studies of the highest level of evidence are systematically identified, appraised and then summarized according to an explicit and reproducible methodology. Systematic reviews differ from traditional reviews and commentaries produced by ‘content experts’ in that they adhere to a scientific methodology which seeks to minimise bias and errors.
The Systematic Review Team from the Centre is involved in carrying out a number of systematic reviews using the JBI methodology. These are set out as below.
