As the literature and evidence base on which health care professionals depend continues to grow, identifying what works in relation to primary health care (PHC) becomes more and more challenging. The publication and storage of materials in different repositories, different indexing and description methods along with multiple concepts and associated terminologies, all mean that the efficient and timely retrieval of vital information can be difficult.
This White Paper/Research Report details the development of a high-performance PHC search filter and associated topic searches that provide health care professionals with a more efficient, reliable, and timely means of retrieving relevant PHC information.
