This project is an exploration in methods – grounded in the James Lind Alliance experience of collecting and prioritising treatment uncertainties from patients, carers and health professionals - for highlighting therapeutic outcomes for Cochrane systematic reviews that are important for patients, public and practitioners. This will be achieved via feasibility work, in three different clinical areas (three different Cochrane Review Groups) using three distinct methods. An evaluation of the utility of the prioritised outcomes for systematic reviews, the suitability of the method adopted (inc cost implications) and reflections from participants will be completed by spring 2015.
