Evidence-Based Care Sheets (EBCS) are summaries on specific key topics, which are focused on nursing practice. Each evidence-based care sheet incorporates the latest evidence, statistics, research and references on a given topic. The references are ranked, using a coding matrix, according to the type of literature they represent (systematic reviews, meta-analysis, etc). You can browse the list of Evidence-Based Care Sheets from the toolbar at the top of the page.

You can browse the list of Quick Lessons from the toolbar at the top of the page. Hover above the More drop-down and select Quick Lessons.

Trip is a clinical search engine designed to allow users to quickly and easily find and use high-quality research evidence to support their practice and/or care.
Trip has been online since 1997 and in that time has developed into the internet’s premier source of evidence-based content. Our motto is ‘Find evidence fast’ and this is something we aim to deliver for every single search.
As well as research evidence we also allow clinicians to search across other content types including images, videos, patient information leaflets, educational courses and news.

Using built-in filters, results of searches on this page are limited to specific clinical research areas. From the Clinical Queries page you can search by a clinical study category, find systematic reviews and run medical genetics searches.
