====== Joanna Briggs Institute ====== https://jbi.global/ The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) [[checklist]]s is a set of [[tool]]s used to assess the [[quality]] of [[research]] studies and to assist in [[evidence-based practice]]. The JBI is an international research center based in Australia that specializes in systematic reviews and evidence-based practice in healthcare. The JBI checklists provide a structured framework for critically appraising research studies, including randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, and qualitative studies. The checklists are designed to help researchers and clinicians evaluate a study's strengths and weaknesses and assess its relevance to their research question or clinical problem. Each checklist consists of a set of questions or criteria that reflect the key elements of a well-designed study. For example, the JBI critical appraisal checklist for randomized controlled trials includes items related to the study design, sample size, randomization and blinding procedures, and statistical analysis. The JBI checklists are used by researchers and clinicians worldwide to ensure that they are using high-quality evidence to inform their practice. They are also used by journals and systematic review organizations to assess the quality of studies submitted for publication or inclusion in a review. The JBI checklists are freely available online and can be downloaded from the JBI website.
