Is this record relevant?
Choose Possibly relevant if you feel the records are about both factors influencing practice, AND electronic fetal heartrate monitoring.
Choose Not relevant if you feel confident the record is:
- Not about either factors influencing practice nor electric fetal heartrate monitoring
- Not about electronic fetal heartrate monitoring
- Not about factors that may affect practice
- A letter, an opinion piece or a literature review. We are not interested in those types of records or reports.

Before you start screening please take a few minutes to customise some features in crowd to suit you.
We have introduced a number of new features and functions in Cochrane Crowd based on contributor feedback. These include enabling contributors to compete with another Cochrane Crowd contributor (in a fun and friendly way!).
Screen4Me notification emails
One-to one screening challenge feature permissions
One-to-one screening challenge notification permissions
You can now also set your own screening targets. This can be done within the task preferences for a task. If you would like, we can periodically send you reminders about your targets
Personalise your account with an avatar. Upload an image here to be used as an avatar. All avatars can be seen by anyone who uses the system.
The image must be a JPG or PNG and must be no larger then 400kB or it will be rejected by the system. An ideal image would be a square jpeg of around 20kB.
Drop an image in the box below to associate it with your profile.
You can show or hide the system messages that appear at the top of the screening records.
When you are screening you can choose where the screening buttons appear.
Choose here whether a single click on a decision will move you to the next record or not.
Normally Cochrane Crowd downloads a small number of records that you can work on and synchronises them automatically with the server. If you know you might be away from Internet access for a while you can increase that number so you can work offline.

| Of the correct. You can either go back and do more training or start screening Since you got less than 50% correct it's best if you redo the training before moving on. The pass mark for this course is 80%. You can have one more attempt at another set of records. | Of the correct. |

Welcome to Cochrane Crowd. Before you get started on your Cochrane Crowd adventure it would be fantastic if you could take a minute to answer 5 brief questions. These questions help us to understand a little about who our crowd is. This in turn helps us to think about how we design the tasks as well as the guidance and training materials that support each task. We will not share the information you give here with other organisations.
