Database Details

The Cochrane Library - Economic Evaluations (Wiley)

Alternative Name:   Cochrane Library - NHS Economic Evaluation Database (Wiley)
Type:   Index
Description:   The Cochrane Library is a collection of databases that contain high-quality, independent evidence to inform healthcare decision-making.
As healthcare resources are finite, information about both costs and effects are essential to making evidence-based decisions about competing healthcare interventions.
But information about cost-effectiveness can be difficult to identify, appraise and interpret.
NHS EED assists decision-makers by systematically identifying economic evaluations from around the world, appraising their quality and highlighting their relative strengths and weaknesses.
The database contains over 5000 abstracts of quality-assessed economic evaluations.
