Purpose of literature searchesTo Keep up-to-date with current researchHelp to influence practice using
comprehensive literature searchingEffective appraisal needs systematic
searching and retrieval strategiesInadequate searching may mean important
work is missed and erroneous conclusions made
(Newell & Burnard, 2006)

Importance of Systematic Literature ReviewMaximises the likelihood of finding relevant

Minimises the chances of being overwhelmed by irrelevant material
The search and retrieval of literature according to set and transparent criteria enables work to be repeated by others.

Designing a search strategyOnce a preliminary search of the literature
has been conducted and a rigorous question is developed a search strategy should be planned
Activity: with a partner consider what are the necessary components of a search strategy?
![Page 17: Searching skills and the facet analysis reviewed jun2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062705/556291bfd8b42aa17d8b5034/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Search strategiesDatabasesSearch terms

Relevant material may be found across medical, nursing, social sciences and perhaps business. No one database will be likely to search and capture the whole topic area. You will find duplication

Databases: Top tipAlways conduct database searches separately
i.e. do not combine a Medline and CINAHL search.
Always use the advanced search page
If you want to capture anything….click “anywhere in text”, if you want it central, then click “title” or “abstract”.

Keep a record…..
Search for simple search terms first and then combine later
Keep track of the hit rateIt is all part of capturing the academic rigour
you have applied to your work.
