Systematic Reviews - Health Technology Assessment - Guidelines - Training - Consultancy - Critical Appraisal Service

Systematic reviews provide the most reliable evidence for decision making in health care.

A systematic review is a literature review using a highly structured process to identify, appraise and synthesise all evidence relevant to a specific health care question. When it is possible and sensible to statistically pool data, we also speak of a meta-analysis.

  Health Technology Assessment is a process that examines the effects of medical technologies (drugs, devices, surgical and other interventions) taking a broad perspective of their medical, economic, social and ethical implications, and looking at their incremental value compared with relevant alternatives.

We at Kleijnen Systematic Reviews Ltd prepare systematic reviews (and meta-analyses), rapid reviews, and health technology assessments to support policy making, licensing and reimbursement decisions (fourth hurdle processes), local decision making about commissioning health services, economic evaluations and guideline development.

We provide training and consultancy in systematic reviews, health technology assessment, guidelines, research methods, basic statistics, meta-analysis, evidence based medicine and evidence based health care.

We also provide a fast critical appraisal service of health care papers or reports - why do it yourself if you can have it done by the experts?

If you would like to commission a systematic review, Kleijnen Systematic Reviews Ltd offers services which are tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.

We have a pool of employed and freelance reviewers who are very experienced, and usually we are able to start working on your systematic review within days.
