Formulating Questions
![Page 5: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Background Questions
• Ask for general knowledge about a disorder• Have two essential components:
1. A question root (who, what, where, when, how, why) with a verb
2. A disorder, or an aspect of a disorder
![Page 6: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Foreground” Questions
• Have four (or three) essential components:1. The patient and/or problem of interest2. The main intervention (defined very broadly,
including an exposure, a diagnostic test, a prognostic factor, a treatment, a patient perception, and so forth)
3. Comparison intervention(s), if relevant4. The clinical outcome(s) of interest.

• When our experience with the condition is limited, at point “A” (like a beginning student), the majority of our questions might be about “background” knowledge.

• As we grow in clinical experience and responsibility, such as at point “B” (like a house officer), we’ll have increasing proportions of questions about the “foreground” of managing patients.

• Further experience with the condition puts us at point “C”, where most of our questions will be “foreground”.
![Page 13: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Clinical practice demands that we use large amounts of both “background” and “foreground” knowledge.

Background vs Foreground Questions
• Background: – What is…? – Use Textbooks for these
• Foreground: – Specific Clinical Issues– More Sophisticated Resources
![Page 15: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
First component
• Think about who / what you wish to apply this evidence to… e.g.– People with a particular disorder?
• e.g chronic pulpitis– People in a particular care setting?
• e.g. community– particular groups of people
• e.g. young women?• the elderly?• children?
• How would you describe your clients / setting?
![Page 16: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Second component
• The intervention / topic of interest (e.g. cause, change in practice etc.) e.g.– Use of topical antibiotics– Might want to specify how much / how often– For complex interventions may need to give specific
detail / consideration to the description…• What exactly am I considering…?
![Page 17: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Third component
• The comparison or alternative (not applicable to all questions) e.g.– systemic Anti-biotic therapy?– Nothing?– Fluids alone?
• What alternatives actions might I try?
![Page 18: Acquire the Best Evidence Where do you find high-quality evidence? – Textbook (print or online) – Medline or PubMed search: find and review articles –](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d005503460f949d2d30/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Fourth component
• The outcome… e.g.– Cure– Duration of disease– prevention– Death– Side effects– Pain (reduced)– Wellbeing– Attachment gain– Tooth loss …….
• What am I hoping to accomplish (what outcomes might reasonably be affected…)?
