Living systematic reviews (LSRs) are a new approach to conducting systematic reviews that allow for real-time updates to be made as new evidence becomes available.A recent study published in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine highlights the benefits and challenges of LSRs and emphasizes the importance of adopting this approach in healthcare research.

This report illustrates our contribution to producing and disseminating systematic reviews of healthcare interventions. These reviews are a powerful tool to enhance healthcare knowledge and decision-making. Since 2018, Cochrane Anaesthesia, and Cochrane Emergency and Critical Care are two separate Groups working closely together.
