Background: Variability in management of intussusception after enema reduction exists. Historically, inpatient observation was recommended; however, there is a lack of evidence-based guidelines for this practice.
Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating outcomes between inpatient (IP) and outpatient (OP) management after enema reduction was performed.
Introduction: The authors examined the time that medical librarians spent on specific tasks for systematic reviews (SRs): interview process, search strategy development, search strategy translation, documentation, deliverables, search methodology writing, and instruction. We also investigated relationships among the time spent on SR tasks, years of experience, and number of completed SRs to gain a better understanding of the time spent on SR tasks from time, staffing, and project management perspectives.
Methods: A confidential survey and study description were sent to medical library directors who were members of the Association of Academic Health Sciences Libraries as well as librarians serving members of the Association of American Medical Colleges or American Osteopathic Association.
