About EPOC:
The Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC) group is one of 50 review groups within The Cochrane Collaboration. The Cochrane Collaboration is an international organisation that helps healthcare providers, policy- makers, patients and others to make well-informed decisions about health care by preparing, maintaining and promoting the accessibility of systematic reviews of healthcare interventions. The scope of the Cochrane EPOC Group is to undertake systematic reviews of educational, behavioural, financial, regulatory and organisational interventions designed to improve health professional practice and the organisation of health care services.
• An EPOC satellite has now been established and officially launched in Oslo. The seminar, on which this report is based, officially marked the launch of this satellite.
• The Oslo satellite will focus on supporting the production and updating of Cochrane reviews that address health systems questions that are relevant to low and middle-income countries (LMIC).
• Another EPOC satellite in Australia was established in 2005 with the primary aim of identifying and helping produce priority EPOC reviews relevant to Australia and the surrounding region and to support EPOC review activity through training and mentoring researchers in Australia.
