Summary Maintaining updated systematic reviews is one of the key goals of the Cochrane Collaboration. Reviews are meant to be updated at an interval of no more than 2 years. The Cochrane Neonatal Review (CNRG) is one of the most productive contributors to the Cochrane Collaboration. However, this means that the CNRG now has a more urgent need to address the issue of review updates. In order to do so, the CNRG has sought methods to prioritise and facilitate the review process.
