What are the best approaches to assess the quality of studies included in a rapid review, and if a quality assessment is either limited or excluded, how should the findings be interpreted?
“I would like to see more guidance on how to assess the quality of included studies”
“Is it ever justifiable to omit the quality appraisal step?”
“Should quality assessment be included in a rapid review? Especially for complex questions that may include qualitative or mixed methods primary studies?”
“Could abridged versions of quality appraisal be used/developed”
“I would like some clear standards on the quality review Process in a RR”
