Your input matters: help shape Cochrane reviews in emergency and critical care https://lnkd.in/dGbARMuP Cochrane is a global independent network of researchers, clinicians, patients, and people interested in health, aims to inform clinical practice and policy decisions with trusted evidence on health and care through high-quality systematic reviews. The field of emergency and critical care is constantly evolving. To keep our Cochrane reviews relevant and impactful, we’re conducting a survey to gather your insights and learn what are the most important questions/topics for you. Your perspectives will directly influence the topics we prioritize for review.    Our goal is to generate a list of 10 high-priority research topics related to first aid, emergency care, and critical care. These topics should be highly important to patients, carers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and the general public, should address unmet health needs, and should of course be a suitable subject for a Cochrane systematic review. Start the Survey: https://lnkd.in/dBmGRC_e Please respond by May 6, 2024, (9 AM CET). #emergency #care #Cochrane #CriticalCare #Hospital #preHospital #FirstAid
