Abstract: This article reports on the findings from a systematic review of the literature on patient and service user engagement in research. The authors have developed a two part framework. The first part describes four components of involvement: • patient and service user initiation • building reciprocal relationships • co-learning • re-assessment and feedback. The second part describes involvement during three phases of research: preparatory, execution and translational phases. The authors comment on the poor quality of the evidence and inconsistency in reporting on involvement.
