Confidence in the Evidence from Reviews of Qualitative Research

What is the GRADE-CERQual approach?

The GRADE-CERQual approach provides a transparent method for assessing the confidence of evidence from reviews of qualitative research, and indicating this confidence to end users, such as guideline panels or decision makers. CERQual uses a similar approach conceptually to other GRADE tools, but is intended for findings from systematic reviews of qualitative evidence.

GRADE-CERQual videos (coming soon)

We have recently recorded a series of presentations on GRADE-CERQual and the use of qualitative evidence in decision making for Western Norway University of Applied Sciences. 

These recordings are in English and are available here.
