How to Find Evidence-Based Practice Materials

In CINAHL

CINAHL has an Evidence-Based Practice filter on the advanced search page (shown below). CINAHL also allows you to limit your search to randomized, controlled trials. Randomized controlled trials are one study type that supports evidence-based practice. 

CINAHL also offered evidence-based care sheets. To access these care sheets, choose "Evidence-Based Care Sheets" from the blue toolbar at the top of the CINAHL database (shown below). You may then search or browse the list of available care sheets. 

 

 

 

In Other Health Science Databases 

The evidence-based practice filter is unique to CINAHL. Adding terms to your search like evidence-based practice," "randomized controlled trial," and other terms associated with evidence-based practice can help you narrow your search results.
