PICO (formerly known as PICOT) is used to describe the four elements of an effective clinical question. The acronym is:
P–Patient/Problem
I–Intervention
C–Comparison
O–Outcome
Many professionals find that using PICO helps them clarify their question which in turn makes it easier to find an answer. Use PICO to generate your clinical question from your evidence-based literature review.
State your clinical question based upon your evidence-based literature review. Discuss at least one example of how a professional nurse can apply PICO in daily practice.
