Using your group’s assigned case study, create a PICO question using the PICO template.*  Using the PICO format leads to effective searches and best available evidence pertaining to interventions’ effectiveness. Conduct a literature search for best available evidence supporting best practices. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Library of Systematic Reviews is one of several databases you may search.
