Implementing editorial interventions - Shamseer.pptxBreakout structure (60 minutes total)
Breakout structure (60 minutes total)
Split into 3 groups
Appoint rapporteur. They should paste the reporting table from the google document below into MS word for note-taking
Brainstorm interventions for about 20 minutes
For 20 minutes, score from 1-7 (1= not at all, 7= very) interventions based on:
Ease of implementation (identify specific obstacles)
Immediacy of result (short-term, long-term, builds over time, etc.)
Likely effectiveness in assuring high-quality systematic reviews
Choose favourites, report back to plenary top 5 (or more!) interventions
Suggested questions (to get you started)
Suggested questions (to get you started)
Editors: What are you already doing in relation to the theme? Can it be formalised? Is there anything you have thought of doing which could apply?
Is there anything which people outside (or inside) the editorial group could do which would help you as an editor?
Practitioners: What has worked for you in the past, when submitting SRs? (Or what could be improved?)
What jumped out from the presentation? What else could be suggested?
For this session, we may want to combine some brainstorming of how we make tests of interventions possible (especially RCTs vs. observational studies), with planning tests for some of the interventions we have been proposing.
