Critical Appraisal Skills Programme’s (CASP) Suite of Critical Appraisal Tools “Is the evidence I found good enough?” Not all published literature is scientifically sound. Only some is valid, sound and useful. The correlate of this is that some research is unreliable and untrustworthy. Do you know how to tell the difference? How can you decide if the evidence you find is good enough and what the results actually mean? The answer is: by critically appraising the research evidence. What is critical appraisal? “The process of carefully and systematically examining research to judge its trustworthiness, value and relevance in a particular context” (from Amanda Burls, today’s advisor on tap). Are there tools or checklists that can help? The Critical Appraisal Skills Programme’s (CASP) developed tools with checklists specifically designed to appraise: Systematic reviews Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) Qualitative research Economic evaluation studies Cohort studies Case control studies Diagnostic test studies All critical appraisal tools consist of three sections to assess internal validity, results and relevance to practice. Join us to learn more! Advisor on Tap: Amanda Burls, BA MBBS MSc (Neuroscience) MSc (Public Health) FFPH, Director of the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme Missed the Webinar?
