How can I find a systematic review?

Answer

If you are using the CINAHL database, you can focus your search on systematic reviews.  From the Advanced Search screen, look for the Publication Type box and choose Systematic Reviews. Then enter your search terms as usual.  CINAHL will only display systematic reviews that meet your search criteria.

There are two databases that specialize in systematic reviews.  The Joanna Briggs database and The Cochrane Library.  Access to these databases and online tutorials for their use can be found on the library guide at this location:
