Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 8   EBP 1058 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Meta-Analysis and Integrative Review

Captions available

The idea

A meta-analysis is the highest form of systematic review; an integrative review is a narrative evidence review that synthesises research on a topic. Both feed guideline development.

In practice

A guideline citing both kinds of synthesis in its evidence base.

Where people slip

"Narrative" here describes the synthesis method, not the low-ranked narrative review of Unit 06. Check which is meant.
