MEDLINE

In the database, MEDLINE (EBSCO), you can easily limit to EBM Reviews by clicking the check box in the Limit section under the search box.

Note: as we have very few journals dedicated to evidenced based work (see left), few of these results will be available as full text. Please be prepared to request articles through Interlibrary Loan.

CINAHL

In CINAHL, you need to go to the Advanced Search, then check the checkbox for Evidence Based Practice.

Note: as we have very few journals dedicated to evidenced based work (see left), few of these results will be available as full text. Please be prepared to request articles through Interlibrary Loan.

CINAHL also has the Evidence Based Care Sheets (see left). Click the Evidence-Based Care Sheets link at the very top of any CINAHL database page.
