What is a PICOT Question?A PICOT Question is a question that is formatted in an accepted format, and used to develop answerable, researchable questions, especially in nursing. PICOT question mainly answers four main areas including population, intervention, control, outcome, and time.
Formulating a PICOT QuestionTo formulate a PICOT question, there are three critical elements that should be addressed. The three elements include population, the proposed intervention, the control to compare with the intervention, the expected outcome, and the time within which the intervention will be considered.
For example:In women of age 60 and above at risk of developing osteoporosis, is educations and medication for one year effective in reducing the complication of osteoporosis compared to none?
In the example given above, the question breaks down as follows:
Population – Women of age 60 and above
Intervention – Education and medication
Control – None, which means there is no intervention
Outcome – Reducing the complications of osteoporosis
Time – One year
