There is almost one database for each specific need, but the Cochrane Library is
the essential resource for the EB practice. MEDLINE is a database that in
addition to health sciences, it includes, among others, social, psychological
and education sciences. CINAHL is the nursing and allied health database.
HealthSTAR includes aspects of administration and management health services,
evaluation of patient outcomes, health technology and quality assessment. EMBASE
is the European equivalent of MEDLINE, it focuses on drugs and pharmacology. Non
indexed journals and text books have a second place in EB practice. Internet is
a powerful tool but quality of information is not guaranteed.
