Differences between protocol and review

This updated review differs from the previously published Cochrane systematic review 'Complementary and alternative therapies for pain management in labour' (Smith 2006). This review has now been revised to three separate reviews.

Notes

This new review is one of three which, collectively, update the previous review on a range of complementary therapies (Smith 2006). This review includes only trials of acupuncture or acupressure.

PICOs

Population
Intervention
Comparison
Outcome

The PICO model is widely used and taught in evidence-based health care as a strategy for formulating questions and search strategies and for characterizing clinical studies or meta-analyses. PICO stands for four different potential components of a clinical question: Patient, Population or Problem; Intervention; Comparison; Outcome.

See more on using PICO in the Cochrane Handbook.
