ABSTRACT

Purpose: What Works for Children’s Social Care has developed an “Evidence Store” to improve awareness of evidence from systematic reviews in children’s social care. During review selection, some reviews were excluded due to methodological flaws, which this paper considers.

Methods: Reviews were identified using a systematic search and screening process. Where reviews were identified as systematic reviews or meta-analyses, exclusion reasons were recorded and analyzed.

Results: The main methodological issue related to quality assessment, which was not conducted in the majority of cases. Several different types of quality assessment tools were used: scales, checklists, and domain-based approaches.

Conclusions: This is the first study to examine the use of systematic review terminology in combination with the use of quality assessment tools in reviews in children’s social care. Consideration of appropriate systematic review methods will enable researchers to generate high-quality evidence and support delivery of evidence-based care.

摘要

目的：什么对儿童社会关怀有效 开发了一个“证据库”，以提高对儿童社会关怀系统评价证据的认识。在评论选择过程中，部分评论由于方法缺陷而被排除，本文认为。

方法：使用系统搜索和筛选过程确定评论。在系统评价或荟萃分析的情况下，记录和分析排除原因。

结果：与质量评估相关的主要方法问题，在大多数情况下没有进行。使用了几种不同类型的质量评估工具：量表、清单和基于领域的方法。

结论：这是第一项研究系统评价术语的使用以及在儿童社会护理评价中使用质量评估工具的情况。考虑适当的系统评价方法将使研究人员能够生成高质量的证据并支持提供循证护理。
