Evidence-based Practice
E-tivity
A key factor in Evidence-based Practice is the sourcing of quality relevant literature to
inform and support your practice. There are several tools that can be used to assist in the
strategic identification of suitable terms and key words to use to identify salient literature
sources: PICO/PIcO or SPICE are examples of such tools.
o You are required to identify a topic or issue from your area of clinical
practice. You are then required to use an available tool such as PICO or
PICo or SPICE to formulate an answerable clinical research question. Using
the tool of choice you will identify the key terms relevant to undertaking a
systematic search of the literature related to your selected topic. You are
then required to conduct a search across three relevant databases using the
PICO/PICo/SPICE key terms you identified.
o Within your e-tivity you will provide a summary detailing how the search
was undertaken (include developed PICO/PICo/SPICE table as part of you
summary). The summary should detail the literature found, for example the
types of studies, main types of studies, which dominated, and evident gaps
in the literature, any available research in the Irish context.
o Word Limit: 1,000 (+/-10%).
