PEDro Physiotherapy Evidence Database (https://pedro.org.au) is a free citation and abstract database focused on providing access to systematic reviews, clinical practice guidelines, and independently scored clinical trials in the field of physiotherapy. Users can search the PEDro interface to find collated, quality evidence-based research initially indexed in the top health sciences databases and across the web. Originally based on the Cochrane Database of Rehabilitation Randomized Trials, PEDro has grown to include over 47,000 new titles from steering committee personal databases, automated searches in Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, AMED, PsycINFO, Cochrane Systematic Reviews, Cochrane CENTRAL Register of Controlled Trials, internet searches for practice guidelines, and by tracking citations of included systematic reviews (1). Content in PEDro is updated monthly, typically on the first Monday of each calendar month.
