Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 3   EBP 0337 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Start From the PICOT Question

Captions available

The idea

The first search strategy is to develop the PICOT question, because its standardised format identifies the terms the search will use.

In practice

A question about mentorship in orientation, compassion fatigue and resilience, yielding four searchable elements.

Where people slip

A question that was never built in PICOT form supplies no terms, and the search starts from a topic instead.
