  3. InBrief The PICO framework is used in evidence-based practice and especially in evidence-based medicine to formulate a clinical or healthcare related question. In a systematic review, the PICO framework is also used to develop literature search strategies to ensure the comprehensive and bias-free searches. The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions mentioned using the PICO framework as a model for developing a review question, thus ensures that the relevantcomponents of the question are welldefined.

  4. Introduction A systematic reviewis a method supporting evidence-based practices andhealthcare decisions primarily through quantitativeapproach. The crucial factor for a systematic reviewis a comprehensive search process as it can be viewed as preventing the risk of biasand thus providing quality representation of available research. Current research investigation process mainly focuses on different methods to ensure the comprehensive and bias-free searches for quantitative systematicreviews. Through devising a search strategy, a search tool has been used in organizing framework to list terms in the searchquestions. Contd..

  5. The PICO frameworkfocuses on the Population, Intervention, Comparison and Outcomes. It is a commonly used tool quantitative systematic review to identify different components of clinical evidence for a systematic review, and the Cochrane Collaborationrecognizesit. A systematic review question typically focused on narrow parameters and usually fitted into the PICOquestionformat. Contd..

O – Outcomemeasures PICO can be used along with the variant such as PICOS (S-Study design), PICOC (C- Context), and PICOT(T-timeframe). Contd..

  9. Conclusion The PICO model was developed to help structure a well-built clinicalquestionand enable a literature searchof relevantcitations. Since its introduction, it has played an essential role as a conceptualizing modelfor evidence-basedmedicine. The PICO framework will also help in reducing the time and retrieving related documents, thus ensures bias-free qualitysystematic review, and it also helps to determine the transparency of evidence synthesis results andfindings.
