  32. Match Resource to Information Need • What is the question? • How will information be used? 31

  33. Background vs. Foreground Questions • Asking questions about your proposed topic helps to clarify your knowledge gap • Clarifying type of question helps to determine which sources are most likely to have the answers you need 33

  34. Background Questions • Generally ask who, what, why, where or how about a single concept • Example: • What are the risk factors for open angle glaucoma? 34

  35. Answers to Background Questions • Require general knowledge of disease and therapeutic processes • Resources: • Ovid MEDLINE Basic Search • MD Consult Clinical Topics & Review Articles • Reference books & monographs – online and print collections 35

  36. Foreground Questions • Usually compare two or more concepts – drugs, treatments, tests, prognosis of two groups, harms or benefits of two approaches • Example: • Does lowering intraocular pressure medically or surgically in patients with open angle glaucoma delay visual field loss? 36

  37. Answers to Foreground Questions • Require precise information about complex issues • Sources should provide current, original clinical research data • OVID MEDLINE – Clinical Queries • Point of Care Databases 37

  38. Life-Long Learning • Selecting and searching online databases is challenging • Information is ever changing • Contact Sandra for help in person, by phone, or email 38
