Collaborative approach to building actionable Evidence Maps
The BIGG-MAP project is spearheading a new era of evidence-based healthcare with its innovative actionable evidence maps. This comprehensive and user-friendly platform acts as a one-stop shop for decision-makers, empowering them to access and utilize the latest medical research with unprecedented ease.
The map serves as a central repository, housing a comprehensive collection of PAHO/WHO GRADE recommendations, systematic reviews, and randomized controlled trials. This information is presented in a dynamic and interactive table format, allowing users to effortlessly navigate and filter results based on specific populations and interventions relevant to their needs.
By providing such a readily accessible and well-organized platform, BIGG-MAP equips decision-makers with the tools they need to swiftly and efficiently identify the most pertinent evidence products to inform their inquiries. This translates to better-informed healthcare policies and practices, ultimately paving the way for improved patient outcomes.
