Update of CRD's guidance for undertaking systematic reviews
The NHS Centre for Reviews and dissemination (CRD) first produced
guidance for undertaking systematic reviews in 1996. This was published
as CRD Report Number 4. The guidance provided a framework for carrying
out systematic reviews of effectiveness. Its use was recommended
throughout NHS-funded systematic reviews to ensure a high standard in
conducting reviews. The second edition of Report Number 4 is in
preparation and will update the original guidance on effectiveness
reviews to reflect the developments in the field.
An electronic preprint of the draft guidance is available at URL:

your comments. If at all possible could you please send us your comments
by the end of September 2000.
