Summary

The objective of this project was to conduct (a) a Delphi process to determine expert opinion on an item’s inclusion and (b) a knowledge user survey to widen its impact. Most knowledge users and Delphi panelists preferred a tool to assess both bias in individual network meta-analysis (NMA) results and authors’ conclusions. This Delphi process and knowledge user survey informs the development of the Risk of Bias (RoB) NMA tool.
