Learn how to correctly modify an OVID Medline search strategy to be used in various databases. This is a difficult and necessary part of effective searching to carry out a quality review worthy of publication. You will learn how to select and use diverse databases and essential tools for documenting your search strategy methodology. The example used will translate an OVID Medline search to OVID Embase and will demonstrate the principles of how to do this for completing your searches in other OVID, EBSCOhost, or other databases if applicable.
Are you considering starting a systematic, scoping, or rapid review but don’t know how to get started? Attend our 5-part series that explores all aspects of comprehensive searching for a knowledge synthesis project. These sessions will focus on the actual skills needed to complete the documenting, searching, translation, deduplication, and screening processes of a systematic, scoping, rapid, or other large-scale comprehensive review, with a focus on the health sciences. Participants will gain a solid understanding of what is needed to complete a systematic review and why they are an essential part of evidence-based practice. Register and attend all 5 sessions to receive credit on your Experience Record
In this workshop participants will:
- Identify variations in search strategies, subject headings, syntax and limits with an emphasis on translating a search strategy from OVID Medline to OVID Embase
- This session will include examples of documenting search strategy methodologies to be incorporated in your review
