Categories of Information Sources Systems: synthesized resources that summarize information from many sources. (Dynam. Med) • They often provide background information. • Most answers to questions asked can be found in a synthesized resource • Provide guidance or recommendations for patient management. Summaries: systematic review of articles and clinical practice guidelines—you assess the information and make decisions. (Cochrane, Medline, CINAHL, TRIP) • By collecting the evidence on a topic, systematic reviews become more useful than individual or primary studies. Studies: individual studies (eg, MEDLINE articles) • Many studies exist but the information they contain needs evaluation before application to clinical problems.

Objective - Identify/define the question to be addressed precisely and explicitly. All members of the team should work to develop and perfect the question because it guides the rest of the review production process. A benefit from careful consideration of the question is that it sets the stage for efficient and effective literature searching to identify and retrieve the current best evidence. Specifying a structured question and identifying an appropriate study design to answer it will allow you to select and use searching resources efficiently and thus enhance your evidence-based practice.

Step 1: formulate the research question Step 2: Develop the review protocol, including the context and rationale for the review and the specific procedures for the search strategy, data collection and extraction, qualitative synthesis and quantitative data synthesis (if a meta-analysis is done), reporting, and peer review Step 3: Systematically locate, screen, and select the studies for review (DOCUMENT EVERYTHING) Step 4: Appraise the risk of bias in the individual studies and extract the data for analysis Step 5: Synthesize the findings and assess the overall quality of the body of evidence Step 6: Prepare a final report and have the report undergo peer review
