NSG 512 Week 5 Learning Team Systematic Review Critique

Systematic reviews are the pillars of evidence-based health care and are secondary research, which is the development of a study based upon prior research. Researchers compile studies into one review and conduct a thorough analysis of an issue. These reviews allow researchers to judge the quality of studies and make suggestions after replicating the research methods used. This method of research is popular in the health care industry because it identifies solutions to complex issues, increases accuracy, and resolves discrepancies.
