description | This article seeks to help health professionals about the importance and usefulness of the Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) as a method for making clinical decisions in the practice of medicine. This article focuses on the first step of EBM’s method: ¿How a structured clinical question facilitates the access in the biomedical literature databases such as PubMed and the Cochrane Library? The use of structured questions is useful to save time and helps in retrieving relevant references from scientific literature to answer the question of intervention or treatment. The structured question consists of four components: Patient, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcomes. The structured query terms and the combination thereof is one of the elements of the search strategy, which is also useful for ellaborating the state of the art or a theoretical framework for a research project. |
