Health Minister Lord Howe has launched a new international database of prospectively registered systematic reviews in Health and Social Care.
The database is called PROSPERO is hosted at the Centre for Reviews and Dissemination at York University.
“PROSPERO is a much needed resource which facilitates prospective registration of systematic reviews. The intuitive registration form is well tailored to the specific features of a systematic review and overcomes the difficulties associated with registering reviews on a standard trial registry.”
