Help with literature screening in gastroenterology
Skills / interests: Screening and selecting studies
The Health Technology Assessment (HTA) unit at the Quebec Heart and Lung Institute - Laval University is conducting an update to a systematic review on the topic of radiofrequency ablation for low-grade lesions in Barrett's esophagus.
The task would consist in assisting with level 1 screening (approximately 125 articles) and level 2 screening of literature using the Covidence web platform. Eventually quality assessment of the litterature will be needed; however, this will be posted as a seperate task.
Ideal applicant
The ideal applicant will be detail oriented and proficient in the English language. You will need to provide your own electronic device with access to a reliable internet connection. Work can be completed remotely and according to your preferred work time.
There would be a meeting at the beginning of your work to further describe the task in detail, orient you to the Covidence platform (if needed) and answer any questions. A team member would remain available throughout your volunteer commitment to guide and answer questions.
