Discussion: Searching Databases
 
When you decide to purchase a new car, you first decide what is important to you. If mileage and
dependability are the important factors, you will search for data focused more on these factors and
less on color options and sound systems.
 
The same holds tru
e when searching for research evidence to guide your clinical inquiry and
professional decisions. Developing a formula for an answerable, researchable question that
addresses your need will make the search process much more effective. One such formula is t
he
PICO(T) format.
 
 
·
 
Review the Resources and identify a clinical issue of interest that can form the basis of a
clinical in
quiry.
 
·
 
Review the materials offering guidance on using databases, performing keyword searches,
and developing PICO(T) questions provided in the Resources.
 
·
 
Review the Resources for guidance and develop a PICO(T) question of interest to you for
further study.
 
It is suggested that an Intervention
–
type PICOT question be developed as these
seem to work best for this course.
 
 
 
To Prepare:
 
 
**C
linical issue will remain the same for the entire course and will be the basis for the
development of your PICOT
question. *
* Please
 
choose
 
a clinical issue that is easy to work
with as this
 
will remain for the rest of the cou
rse.
 
 
 
1.
 
T
ransform a clinical inquiry into a searchable question in PICO(T) format, so you can search
the electronic databases more effectively and efficiently.
 
2.
 
Based on the clinical issue of interest and using keywords related to the clinical issue of
interest,
 
search at least two different databases in the Walden Library to identify at least four
relevant peer
–
reviewed articles related to your clinical issue of interest.
You should not be

PICO(T) question and examine strateg
ies you might use to increase the rigor and
effectiveness of a database search on your PICO(T) question.

Discussion: Searching Databases
When you decide to purchase a new car, you first decide what is important to you. If mileage and

The same holds true when searching for research evidence to guide your clinical inquiry and
professional decisions. Developing a formula for an answerable, researchable question that
addresses your need will make the search process much more effective. One such formula is the
PICO(T) format.
 
 Review the Resources and identify a clinical issue of interest that can form the basis of a
clinical inquiry.
 Review the materials offering guidance on using databases, performing keyword searches,
and developing PICO(T) questions provided in the Resources.
 Review the Resources for guidance and develop a PICO(T) question of interest to you for

To Prepare:
 
**Clinical issue will remain the same for the entire course and will be the basis for the
development of your PICOT question. ** Please choose a clinical issue that is easy to work
with as this will remain for the rest of the course.
 
1. Transform a clinical inquiry into a searchable question in PICO(T) format, so you can search
the electronic databases more effectively and efficiently.
2. Based on the clinical issue of interest and using keywords related to the clinical issue of
interest, search at least two different databases in the Walden Library to identify at least four
relevant peer-reviewed articles related to your clinical issue of interest. You should not be
using systematic reviews for this assignment, select original research articles.
 
DISCUSSION:
3. Post a brief description of your clinical issue of interest.
4. Share PICO(T) question and examine strategies you might use to increase the rigor and
effectiveness of a database search on your PICO(T) question.
5. Describe your search results in terms of the number of articles returned on original research
and how this changed as you added search terms using your Boolean operators.
6. Finally, explain strategies you might make to increase the rigor and effectiveness of a
database search on your PICO(T) question. Be specific and provide examples.
