PICO(C)
Also called pico, picoc, pico framework
PICO(C) (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, and optionally Context) breaks a clinical or intervention question into parts you can actually search for. Each letter becomes a search term or filter.
In context
You'll usually need this when framing a question about whether one intervention works better than another.
