Without a literature review, there can be no research project. Literature reviews are necessary to learn what is known (and not known) about a topic of interest. In the respiratory care profession, the body of research is enormous, so a method to search the medical literature efficiently is needed. Selecting the correct databases, use of Boolean logic operators, and consultations with librarians are used to optimize searches. For a narrow and precise search, use PubMed, MEDLINE, Ovid, EBSCO, the Cochrane Library, or Google Scholar. Reference management tools assist with organizing the evidence found from the search. Analyzing the search results and writing the review provides an understanding of why the research question is important and its meaning. Spending time in reviewing published literature reviews can serve as a guide or model for understanding the components and style of a well-written literature review.
如果没有文献综述，就不可能有研究项目。文献综述是了解感兴趣的主题的已知（和未知）信息所必需的。在呼吸治疗专业中，研究领域非常广泛，因此需要一种有效的方法来搜索医学文献。选择正确的数据库、使用布尔逻辑运算符以及咨询图书馆员可以优化搜索。对于狭窄而精确的搜索，可以使用 PubMed、MEDLINE、Ovid、EBSCO、Cochrane 图书馆或 Google Scholar。参考管理工具有助于组织从搜索中找到的证据。分析搜索结果并撰写综述可以帮助理解为什么研究问题很重要及其意义。花时间回顾已发表的文献综述可以作为理解编写良好的文献综述的组成部分和风格的指南或模型。
