Gastroenterology & Hepatology

Have you or someone you know well experienced or been affected by hepatic encephalopathy due to cirrhosis? Your input is needed on a review considering antibiotic treatments for people with hepatic encephalopathy caused by cirrhosis.

Skills / interests: Patient and public input

Would you be interested in helping us with this article focused on antibiotic treatments (aminoglycosides, vancomycin, and metronidazole) for people with hepatic encephalopathy due to cirrhosis?

I am looking for a consumer who would be willing to peer review this Cochrane systematic review, “Aminoglycosides, vancomycin, and metronidazole for people with cirrhosis and hepatic encephalopathy”.

Cochrane considers a consumer to be a person with experience of the condition (in this case, hepatic encephalopathy due to cirrhosis), either as a patient or as a carer/family member of a patient. From a consumer perspective, we are interested in whether the language of the review, especially in the Plain Language Summary, is accessible and feels relevant for those affected by the condition, so that it can support patients and carers in healthcare decision-making.

While you are welcome to provide feedback on any part of the review, you may focus on the summary sections. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task that does not overburden consumer reviewers.

 

Thank you in advance for considering!
