- 11. “Finding Evidence”: Searching Strategy 1 2 3 4 • Decide if the question is a Foreground or Background Question • Convert clinical Foreground question to searchable question (e.g. PICO) • Choose the database you want to search: Primary (e.g. Pubmed), Secondary (e.g. Cochrane)or Tertiary (e.g. Trip Database) • Apply filters to restrict your search (e.g. PubMed limits linked to PICO such as gender, age, study type limits)
- 12. “Finding Evidence”: Searching Strategy 5 6 7 8 • Appraise your Primary studies: Critical Appraisal Tools • Assess result (e.g. using systematic review worksheet) • Decide if you have enough information to make a decision • If not then refine steps 2-4 until you either have an answer or decide there isn’t enough evidence to make an evidence based decision

- 14. Secrets of Literature Searching Strategies for Literature Searching: Strategy 2: Foreground Knowledge: Primary Literature/Original Studies= Pubmed, Embase, Cinahl etc
