FAQ: Which risk of bias tool does Covidence use?

Our standard template for quality assessment (Risk of Bias) is based on the Cochrane Risk of Bias version 1 tool.

The quality assessment template in our Extraction 2 tool is fully customizable to the needs of the particular review. Once downloaded from Covidence, however, it is not possible to import the Extraction 2 data into RevMan. 

If you would like to use Cochrane's Risk of bias 2 tool and upload the data to RevMan, we recommend using the CSV template provided by RevMan here and importing the data straight into RevMan.

Information on how to export study-centric data from Covidence to RevMan is available here.
