Evidence-based nursing content from The Joanna Briggs Institute
Researchers gain exclusive access to highly valuable evidence-based nursing information from The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). These resources include Systematic Reviews, Evidence Summaries, and Best Practice Information Sheets. The JBI's evidence-based approach opens a new world of education resources, with critical appraisal and meta-analysis that is highly respected and unquestioned in the field.

Unique training tools from JBI
Users also receive access to Rapid Assessment Protocol internet database (RAPid) and System for the Unified Management, Assessment and Review of Information (SUMARI). The RAPid training tool enables users to systematically evaluate research articles and write structured research findings to publish on the JBI interface. It teaches students to critically appraise evidence using established data collection tools and offers the possibility of publishing appraisals in the form of refereed reports. SUMARI is a developing software package designed to assist health and other researchers and practitioners to conduct systematic reviews with evidence of feasibility, appropriateness, meaningfulness and effectiveness and to conduct economic evaluations of activities and interventions.
