Updated Project Methodology-now available in pdf format

Health Evidence Bulletins - Wales is a collaborative project involving Public Health, other providers of primary and secondary health care, and library and information units.

The Health Evidence Bulletins - Wales act as signposts to the best evidence across a broad range of evidence types and subject areas.

Where information from randomised controlled trials is available it is included. However, many health issues do not lend themselves easily to investigation, or have not yet been studied, by this method. In these cases, high quality evidence has been sought from observational and other studies.
