Description
Summary:In the second of a series of articles about reading and abstracting the literature, Bernardo offers suggestions on how to get started with reading and abstracting evidence-based practice literature. Among other things, one should have a process to reading the literature. Prefer to read the clinical articles first. These articles provide with the necessary background to understand the research process used in the clinical trials and systematic reviews. This background is particularly important if one is embarking on a journey that is not in an area of one's clinical expertise.
