PICOT Search Enhancements
March 2025

The PICOT guided search tool has been updated in the following ways: Descriptive text has been added that helps busy medical users understand how to run a PICOT search, with a link to an updated Connect page; a “Clear all” button was added to clear all PICOT search boxes; and the Boolean operator inserted between “Intervention” and “Comparison” changed from OR to AND, so the search string displays on the Advanced Search page as follows: Population/Problem AND (Intervention AND Comparison) AND Outcome AND Time. Users are welcome to modify this prior to running the search, by manually changing the search query on the Advanced Search page.

The PICOT tool is disabled by default. However, customers or EBSCO Support can enable it via the Configuration module in EBSCO Experience Manager.
