Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 6   EBP 0792 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Risk of Bias Assessment

Captions available

The idea

A systematic review assesses the validity of each included study through a risk of bias assessment.

In practice

Each included trial rated for the specific biases its design was exposed to.

Where people slip

A review that gathered studies without assessing them has synthesised evidence of unknown worth, and the synthesis inherits every weakness it did not look for.
