The Ontario Health Care Evaluation Network and the Critical Care Research Network as Vehicles for Research Transfer

Medical Decision Making, 1998, vol. 18, issue 1, 9-16

Abstract: Facilitating the successful and consistent use of research results to support health care decisions is a formidable task. Barriers to effectively transferring the results of research into the decision-making process have been created between practitioners and researchers, who traditionally have worked in isolation from each other. The need for them to work cooperatively to break down these barriers is paramount as changes within the health care environment increase. The Ontario Health Care Evaluation Net work (OHCEN) and the Critical Care Research Network (CCR-Net) have attempted to address these concerns by bringing together teams of researchers, practitioners, and administrative personnel with the purpose of equipping them with tools to meet on coming health care challenges. Key words: research transfer; decision making; evi dence-based medicine; systematic reviews; meta-analysis; education; informatics; In ternet; communications. (Med Decis Making 1998;18:9-16)
