Search MEDLINE/PubMed via PICO with Spelling Checker
This search allows you to run a PubMed search using the PICO to formulate the search strategy
The Tabs above will show you how to search and how to obtain the articles found.
The PICO model will help you to construct your "foreground" clinical questions.
Note: It is not always necessary to include all four facets (components) in your PICO search statement, especially if you can find suitable MeSH terms to use in your search. Sometimes your search will yield too few results if your search strategy is too specific.
However, you should minimally include P and I to begin with when searching under Clinical Queries in PubMed.
