"Rapid reviews are a form of evidence synthesis that may provide more timely information for decision making compared with standard systematic reviews." [...] rapid reviews 'are literature reviews that use methods to accelerate or streamline traditional systematic review processes' in order to meet the needs and timelines of the end-users (e.g., 'government policymakers, health care institutions, health professionals, and patient associations')"(Hartling, Guise, & Hempel, 2016)(Ganann, Ciliska, & Thomas, 2010).
