PICO Worksheet and Search Strategy – this gets handed in as part of your assignment Name: Aya Hemsas Team #: 6 1. Create your EBSCO account (see instructions) and insert the screenshot here or at the end of this document. 2. What is your intervention? Are there any synonyms for the intervention. For example, if your intervention is “exercise”, then you may want to put “physical activity” as a synonym. Your intervention may not have any synonyms. Enter the information into the “I” column in the table below. Aromatherapy Essential oils 3. What potential health or clinical outcome are you interested in? This may change, based on your search results. Again, think of any synonyms and enter the information in the table below. Headaches Migraines Cluster headaches Tension headaches 4. Start searching with these two components only. Follow the instructions in the table and be sure to take screen shots of your searches and continue to fill out the table. During this phase, you may be altering your outcome somewhat. You may also decide to include a “population” in order to narrow down your results list (this is not necessary). You may or may not want to specify a comparison, often that limits your results too much. 5. List the main topics and terms from your question that you can use to search P = adults I = aromatherapy C = O = headaches Synonyms: How many records were returned? Synonyms: Essential oils How many records were returned? Synonyms: How many records were returned? Synonyms: Migraines Cluster headaches How many records were returned?
N/A 7,000 N/A 15,190 Combine each of the search results with "OR" Combine each of the search results with "OR" Combine each of the search results with "OR" Combine each of the search results with "OR" Now, combine two or more of the big searches with “AND”. Remember, the more PICO components you include in the search, the fewer articles you will find. What terms did you combine with “AND”? Migraines and aromatherapy How many records were returned? 29 6. Identify 2 articles that meet the following criteria: a. Primary evidence - this means the authors are reporting their own research. You may NOT use review articles for this assignment, so read the title and abstract carefully. b. Quantitative research – no qualitative studies allowed. We practiced how to tell the difference, use those skills and ask your faculty to check if you are confused. c. At least one article that you chose must be experimental research. The other article can either be experimental research or nonexperimental research (see Module 2 and ask your faculty if you are confused). No quality improvement projects! d. Please be sure the article you found is reporting on a completed research study. Some articles are published before the research has been done because they want to tell readers what their plans are. These kinds of articles will typically include the word “protocol” in the title. Protocols are not allowed for this project. e. Tips on how to identify articles from the list: i. Start with the title. Look for the key words – does it sound like it is about the intervention and outcome you chose? Pay attention to the other words that might indicate that the article is NOT allowed (“review”, “qualitative”, “protocol”, etc.) ii. Once you have found a title that seems promising, read the abstract, which is accessible on the same screen. Look for more clues that tell you whether it is a primary article, quantitative, has to do with your topic of interest, etc. iii. If the abstract sounds promising, you have to locate the entire article to be sure it fits. iv. Remember, you must use at least two databases. If you only found one article in CINAHL, try searching a different database with the same search strategy. 7. Create citations in APA format for your two articles here: Bhardwaj, N., Chavez, M., Fleeks, J., Ondari, A., & Payne, S. (2022a). Does peppermint essential oil relieve headache pain in adults with tension headaches? Evidence-Based Practice , 26 (1), 16–17. https://doi.org/10.1097/ebp.0000000000001522 Niazi, M., Hashempur, M. H., Taghizadeh, M., Heydari, M., & Shariat, A. (2017). Efficacy of topical rose ( Rosa Damascena Mill.) oil for migraine headache: A randomized double-
blinded placebo-controlled cross-over trial. Complementary Therapies in Medicine , 34 , 35–41. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ctim.2017.07.009 8. Now that you have found two articles that are about your intervention and outcome, list your final PICO components. You may not have a Comparison, but you should have the other three. Even if you did not use a specific population in your search, you still need to specify what your population is (for example – adults, teens, veterans, college students, etc.) P= Adults I= essential oils C= O= migraines Also combine the components into question format: Can essential oils help adults who suffer from migraines? 9. List the databases that you searched (one MUST be CINAHL). You must have searched at least 2 databases. CINAHL and PubMed 10. What worked well in your search, and what did not? Did you need to refine or broaden your search (perhaps change your population)? CINAHL was much simpler to use. Adding a demographic made it too specific so it had to be less narrow. 11. Insert your screenshots of the searches here. See the Instructions sheet for more detail and examples. Remember, we want to see evidence of at the following: a. searching the terms by themselves b. combining appropriate terms using the Boolean operator AND c. combining appropriate terms using the Boolean operator OR (if relevant, you may not have used OR)
