In-person Covidence training: setting up an efficient data extraction template
Covidence is a tool to assist in conducting Systematic Reviews. This in-person session delivered by a Covidence training expert will cover creating, modifying, and publishing data extraction templates in Covidence's Extraction 1 tool, and provide an opportunity for you to ask your more challenging questions about using Covidence.
The session will be suitable for any review type and will demonstrate how to add interventions or exposures and continuous, dichotomous or qualitative outcomes. You will also be shown what the published template looks like for the data extractors and how to customise interventions, outcomes and data formats to capture data as reported from your studies.
This workshop will be held in the Continuum Room, Level 3, 75 Talavera Rd.
