Finding Evidence-Based Articles & Research in CINAHL nursing database

Many nursing and allied health journals include evidence-based practice articles and topics, even if "evidence" isn't in the title.

When searching the CINAHL database, filter the topic search with the Evidence-Based Practice checkbox to limit the search results to the following:

  • Articles from evidence-based practice journals
  • Articles about evidence-based practice
  • Research articles (including systematic reviews, clinical trials, meta analyses, etc.)
  • Commentaries on research studies (applying practice to research)
