The Cochrane Collaboration is an international organization that aims to help people make well-informed decisions about healthcare by preparing, maintaining and promoting the accessibility of systematic reviews of the effects of healthcare interventions. It is a non-profit organization. The main work of the Collaboration is done by about fifty Collaborative Review Groups, within which Cochrane Reviews are prepared and maintained. The members of these groups share an interest in generating reliable, up-to-date evidence relevant to the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of particular health problems or groups of problems.
