The Cochrane Collaboration is an international non-profit and independent organisation, dedicated to making up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of health care readily available worldwide. It produces and disseminates systematic reviews of health care interventions and promotes the search for evidence in the form of clinical trials and other studies of interventions. The major product of the Collaboration is The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, which is published quarterly as part of The Cochrane Library. Those who prepare the reviews are mostly health care professionals who volunteer to work in one of the many Collaborative Review Groups (CRGs), with editorial teams overseeing the preparation and maintenance of the reviews, as well as application of the rigorous quality standards for which Cochrane reviews have become known. In 2000 the Cochrane Anaesthesia Review Group (CARG) was established and is situated in Copenhagen. The scope covers anaesthesia, perioperative medicine, intensive care medicine, resuscitation and emergency medicine. CARG published 24 reviews in The Cochrane Library, Issue 4, 2005.
