CEU Bulletin, July 2012 | Cochrane Clinical Answers



Cochrane Clinical Answers

Wiley and the Cochrane Editorial Unit are working on a project to create a new product: Cochrane Clinical Answers (CCAs). CCAs are aimed at clinicians at the point of care, and they use evidence from Cochrane systematic reviews to create short answers to clinical questions. The content is developed by drawing out key information from Cochrane Reviews (an automated process), then a team of freelance clinicians (associate editors) and the CCA Editor use this evidence to create the clinical answers. All CCAs are then signed off by The Cochrane Library Editor-in-Chief, David Tovey.

We currently have 53 CCAs going through the editorial process, 32 of which have been signed off. Alongside the editorial work, the CCA website is being developed, and we are aiming for a clear, uncomplicated design that is easy and quick to use. Market testing of the site has been completed and Wiley is currently working to incorporate both market testing and CEU feedback. The site is due to launch later in the year and will be on display at the Cochrane Colloquium in Auckland. If Cochrane Review Groups would like to be involved in this project in any way, or if they have any questions, please do contact me.

Karen Pettersen (kpettersen@wiley.com), CCA editor
