Abstract

Objective of the Review: To describe the aims and objectives of the Cochrane Russia Center. Key points. Decision-making processes in health care are complex and include various components, involving multiple factors and actors at different levels. In such circumstances, the sources and availability of information are of particular importance. One of the goals of the Cochrane Collaboration, in particular the Cochrane Russia Center, which is based in the Russian Medical Academy of Continuing Professional Education (RMANPO), is to disseminate quality information on health issues. In response to the challenges faced by healthcare systems during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Global Commission on Evidence was established. Its work resulted in developing the Evidence Commission Report. This report providing a number of recommendations for all participants in decision-making at different levels, was translated into Russian by the staff of Cochrane Russia based in RMANPO. In addition, to increase the availability of quality information for both physicians and patients, Cochrane Russia translates summaries of Cochrane systematic reviews and training materials into Russian, develops and publishes information materials. Conclusion. Supporting clinical decision making by physicians is the main goal of Cochrane Russia's activities at RMANPO. Cochrane Russia is a link and source of quality evidence-based information for all Russian-speaking audiences. Keywords: Cochrane, Cochrane Russia, RMANPO, systematic review, evidence, evidence-based medicine, clinical decisions.
