The value of systematic reviews in research.
Nurses may be deterred from using research to inform their practice because of the huge numbers of papers available on some topics. Literature reviews on a topic of interest may make the task easier. A systematic review aims to discover all the research undertaken on a subject and review all the results in a scientific manner. Systematic reviews may highlight findings not available from individual studies and can thus help to inform and improve practice.
