76. The James Lind Alliance Guidebook

The “James Lind Alliance (JLA) Guidebook” provides guidance about how to apply the JLA patient-involvement methodology for setting research priorities in health named “Priority Setting Partnership” (PSP). This JLA Guidebook contains methods, principles, and steps on how to establish a priority setting partnership and also useful examples of application. JLA has been working to identify research priorities in more than 40 areas including emergency medicine, palliative and end of life care, kidney transplantation, and autism. The JLA approach involves a combination of surveys and workshop interactions between patients, carers, and health care professionals to identify and agree on a “Top 10” list of research questions, aimed to highlight important areas for research.
