Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (Epoc) Qualitative Evidence Syntheses, Differences From Reviews of Intervention Effectiveness and Implications for Guidance
Systematic reviews of qualitative research (‘qualitative evidence syntheses’) are increasingly popular and represent a potentially important source of information about people’s views, needs and experiences. Since 2013, Cochrane has published qualitative evidence syntheses, and the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care group has been involved in the majority of these reviews. But more guidance is needed on how to prepare these revi…

Qualitative Evidence Syntheses Within Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care
A growing number of researchers are preparing systematic reviews of qualitative evidence, often referred to as 'qualitative evidence syntheses'. Cochrane published its first qualitative evidence synthesis in 2013 and published 27 such syntheses and protocols by August 2020. Most of these syntheses have explored how people experience or value different health conditions, treatments and outcomes. Several have been used by guideline producers and ot…
Purposive sampling in a qualitative evidence synthesis
BACKGROUND: In a qualitative evidence synthesis, too much data due to a large number of studies can undermine our ability to perform a thorough analysis. Purposive sampling of primary studies for inclusion in the synthesis is one way of achieving a manageable amount of data. The objective of this article is to describe the development and application of a sampling framework for a qualitative evidence synthesis on vaccination communication. METHOD…
When 'Normal' Becomes Normative
In 2011, we published a review exploring how researchers report and justify their focus group sample sizes. We concluded that sample sizes vary widely and that most researchers give no explanation for their sample size. The aim of our 2011 study was to describe practice rather than develop guidance. However, after our study was published, we noticed that new researchers were using our information about typical sample sizes as justification for th…
Applying GRADE-Cerqual to qualitative evidence synthesis findings
The GRADE-CERQual ('Confidence in the Evidence from Reviews of Qualitative research') approach provides guidance for assessing how much confidence to place in findings from systematic reviews of qualitative research (or qualitative evidence syntheses). The approach has been developed to support the use of findings from qualitative evidence syntheses in decision-making, including guideline development and policy formulation. Confidence in the evid…
Using the COMMVAC taxonomy to map vaccination communication interventions in Mozambique
BACKGROUND: Improved communication about childhood vaccination is fundamental to increasing vaccine uptake in low-income countries. Mozambique, with 64% of children fully vaccinated, uses a range of communication interventions to promote uptake of childhood immunisation. OBJECTIVES: Using a taxonomy developed by the 'Communicate to Vaccinate' (COMMVAC) project, the study aims to identify and classify the existing communication interventions for v…
Implementation considerations when expanding health worker roles to include safe abortion care
To increase the likelihood of success for role expansion strategies in the area of safe abortion, programme planners must consider how to ensure motivation, support and reasonable working conditions for affected health workers
Factors affecting the implementation of childhood vaccination communication strategies in Nigeria
Communication activities are a crucial element of immunization programmes. It is therefore important for policy makers and programme managers to understand the barriers and facilitators affecting the delivery of vaccination communication so as to be able to implement communication interventions more effectively
The comprehensive ‘Communicate to Vaccinate’ taxonomy of communication interventions for childhood vaccination in routine and campaign contexts
This taxonomy provides a standardised way to think and speak about vaccination communication. It is categorised by purpose to help conceptualise communication interventions as potential solutions to address needs or problems. It can be utilised by programme planners, implementers, researchers and funders to see the range of communication interventions used in practice, facilitate evidence synthesis and identify evidence gaps
Communication strategies to promote the uptake of childhood vaccination in Nigeria
BACKGROUND: Effective communication is a critical component in ensuring that children are fully vaccinated. Although numerous communication interventions have been proposed and implemented in various parts of Nigeria, the range of communication strategies used has not yet been mapped systematically. This study forms part of the 'Communicate to vaccinate' (COMMVAC) project, an initiative aimed at building research evidence for improving communicat…
Using Qualitative Evidence in Decision Making for Health and Social Interventions
Simon Lewin and colleagues present a methodology for increasing transparency and confidence in qualitative research synthesis.
Mapping how information about childhood vaccination is communicated in two regions of Cameroon
By identifying the interventions used in Cameroon and developing an intervention map, we allowed stakeholders to see where they were concentrating their communication efforts and where gaps exist, allowing them to reflect on whether changes are needed to the communication strategies they are using
Qualitative Research Synthesis
The rise of the knowledge society has led to an increase in the amount of research that is produced and an increased demand from decision makers for summaries of this research. As a result, research syntheses have become increasingly important in applied research, especially within the health sciences. However, this methodology has not been adopted with the same enthusiasm in the field of anthropology. In this article, we describe the main princi…
“Communicate to vaccinate”
BACKGROUND: Vaccination is a cost-effective public health measure and is central to the Millennium Development Goal of reducing child mortality. However, childhood vaccination coverage remains sub-optimal in many settings. While communication is a key feature of vaccination programmes, we are not aware of any comprehensive approach to organising the broad range of communication interventions that can be delivered to parents and communities to imp…
Lay health workers in primary and community health care for maternal and child health and the management of infectious diseases
BACKGROUND: Lay health workers (LHWs) are widely used to provide care for a broad range of health issues. Little is known, however, about the effectiveness of LHW interventions. OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of LHW interventions in primary and community health care on maternal and child health and the management of infectious diseases. SEARCH STRATEGY: For the current version of this review we searched The Cochrane Central Register of Control…

Use of qualitative methods alongside randomised controlled trials of complex healthcare interventions
OBJECTIVE: To examine the use of qualitative approaches alongside randomised trials of complex healthcare interventions. DESIGN: Review of randomised controlled trials of interventions to change professional practice or the organisation of care. DATA SOURCES: Systematic sample of 100 trials published in English from the register of the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care Review Group. METHODS: Published and unpublished qualitativ…
Chronic back pain sufferers-striving for the sick role
Developing patient‐centred information for back pain sufferers
Objective To identify information needs among a group of back pain sufferers as well as the barriers that may prevent them from accessing this information. Design Data were collected through the use of open, in‐depth interviews, through contributions to the Norwegian Back Pain Association's online discussion list, and through a search of the literature. Participants Norwegian back pain sufferers and their carers. Main variables studied Informatio…
The use of evidence by health care user organizations
Objectives To explore the use of research evidence by consumer and patient organizations and the extent to which their goals and activities are consistent with evidence‐based health care and patient‐centred care. Design A mailed survey, telephone and face‐to‐face interviews of leaders of organizations representing health care users. Setting Norway. Participants Sixty‐nine of 109 questionnaires that were mailed were included in our analysis and ap…
