Starting a review

If you wish to use RevMan for a Cochrane review, you must base the review on a designated template provided by your Review Group.

You can also create reviews within RevMan for purposes other than publication in The Cochrane Library.

Getting a review template

When your Review Group has prepared the template, they will let you know that it is ready for check out from Archie.

Creating a new review

Click the New button on the toolbar. This opens the New Review Wizard.

Warning:  If you create a review within RevMan instead of using a template from your Review Group, it will not be possible to make this into a Cochrane review for publication in The Cochrane Library without substantial later editing on your part to transfer the contents of your file into an official template.
