Select an area of practice that is of interest to you and amenable for a potential evidence-based improvement project.
Identify a real or potential clinical/health care problem.
Briefly describe the problem. The problem can be real or hypothetical.
Briefly describe what outcomes you could use to identify the problem (INTERNAL DATA) and then use to measure to determine if there was improvement.
Formulate a searchable, answerable clinical question (PICOT) about your identified problem and to guide a potential improvement project. Write your clinical question in the PICOT format that will yield the most relevant and best evidence relative to the problem. Identify keywords from your PICOT question to use in a future electronic database search.
