JBI JBI is a global organisation promoting and supporting evidence-based decisions that improve health and health service delivery. Better Evidence. Better outcomes.

Brighter future. WHO IS JBI? JBI offers a unique range of solutions to access, appraise and apply the best available evidence. JBI is driven to improving health outcomes in communities globally by promoting and supporting the use of the best available evidence to inform decisions made at the point of care. This work begins and ends with the needs of those working in and using healthcare services. JBI responds to their questions and provides high quality, reliable information that is pragmatic and useful where it counts. This information is based on evidence that is feasible, appropriate, meaningful and effective to specific populations and settings. JBI achieves this by working with universities and hospitals from across the globe through the JBI Collaboration. In doing so JBI ensures that the research evidence we seek to synthesise, transfer and implement is culturally inclusive and relevant across the diversity of healthcare internationally. JBI promotes and supports the sustainability of improved healthcare practice and health outcomes globally by developing and delivering a range of unique evidence-based resources, software, education and training.

Delirium is a common complication experienced by admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), with effective management being crucial.

💡A recent study found that adherence to best practices in is low among ICU health professionals in Brazil, particularly in areas involving patient education and family involvement.

🔎These findings highlight the need to improve delirium care across all healthcare institutions, with current delirium management differing between public and private hospitals across the country.

📣 JBI Evidence Synthesis invites submissions for a special series focusing on Studies Within a Review (SWARs), an emerging extension of the systematic review process.

👉 SWARs are research studies that are embedded within a review or to evaluate different review methods and processes in order to improve methods.

👉 Depending on the research question, SWARs may have broad applicability or be restricted to a specific field of health research addressed in the original .

👉 SWARs help inform how future systematic reviews should be undertaken and also identify gaps and areas for future methodological research.

Check out the information for authors for a template to accommodate SWARs manuscripts. ⬇️

Cancer patients in palliative care often experience oral symptoms that can affect speaking, eating, tasting, and swallowing. This can affect patients’ social activities and potentially worsen physical, social, and psychological well-being, therefore resulting in lower quality of life.

💡A new systematic review used a mixed methods approach, incorporating qualitative and quantitative data, to better understand this issue. It focused on the effectiveness of hygiene care in managing these symptoms and explored patients’ experiences of the care.

The Campaign encourages researchers, clinicians, communicators, communities, media, and decision-makers to reflect, share, and act on the role of collaborative knowledge communication in evidence-based healthcare (EBHC).

In , knowledge should not come only from scientific evidence (such as findings from clinical trials, observational studies, and systematic reviews). It also needs to come from community values and preferences, clinical expertise, policy judgement, contextual understanding, evaluation of existing approaches, and experiences.

💡Evidence, values, and experience each represent different yet equally valid ways of knowing.

By focusing on collaborative knowledge communication, we invite the global evidence ecosystem to reflect on the human, cultural, technological and political dynamics that shape how healthcare-related knowledge travels—and transforms lives.

✍️Submit a blog by 29 September for publication on the World EBHC Day website.

Penta vaccination is essential in protecting children from five life-threatening diseases. Every missed dose increases a child's vulnerability to these preventable illnesses.

In 2024, the Bali Health District in Cameroon faced alarmingly low Penta uptake among children under 5 years.

This decline was largely attributed to poor clinical communication, insufficient reminders, and limited caregiver engagement.

💡To address this issue, Effective Basic Services (eBASE Africa), with support from JBI, implemented a structured, evidence-based communication strategy to improve vaccine uptake.

👩‍💻Read the Impact Story to learn about the challenges faced by families in Bali, the of the project using JBI’s PACES and GRiP frameworks, and the valuable lessons learned along the way.

Our Story

Since its inception JBI has strived to provide the best available evidence to inform clinical decision-making at the point of care. The JBI logo is a pebble dropping into water, and is a metaphor for the process of knowledge sharing and practice change and how a single act or piece of information can be a powerful catalyst for continuous change.

Vision

Better evidence. Better outcomes. Brighter future.
