Trip Database
Database info
The Trip database is an EBM search engine for health professionals, a tool to easily find clinical information material available on the web using the principles of evidence based medicine. Each result in the Trip database has a colour assigned to it representing the type of publication. These colours are also visualised in an evidence pyramid underneath the publication. Through this, the level of evidence can easily be assessed per publication. Systematic reviews and guidelines have the highest ranking, while publications such as ongoing systematic reviews/clinical trials and patient information leaflets have the lowest level of evidence.
Includes:
- Evidence Based Synopses
- Clinical Questions
- Guidelines
- E-textbooks
- Patient Information Leaflets
- Systematic Reviews (such as Cochrane Database, DARE)
- Core general medical journals (NEJM, JAMA, Lancet, BMJ, Annals of Internal Medicine, BMJ Updates)
