Nursing: PICOT question

P : Population/ Patient Problem : Who is your patient? (Disease or Health status, age, race, sex)
I : Intervention: What do you plan to do for the patient? (Specific tests, therapies, medications)
C : Comparisons between different patients: What is the alternative to your plan? (ie. No treatment, different type of treatment, etc.)
O : Outcome: What outcome do you seek? ( for example less symptoms, no symptoms, full health, etc.)
T : Time: What is the time frame? (This element is not always included.)
