*1. Try finding what you need by typing in the key word(s) in the usual search box on the left hand side. You can use '''*''' before and after the key word, to widen the search and show all articles with that key word in them. Ex. type in *Sepsis* in the search box. | |||
*2. Take a look if the answer you need is in any of these articles. | |||
*3. If you cannot find the answer you need, use the new search function located in the '''blue box''' at the top of the '''Search Results''' page. | |||
*4. Type in your key word in the white line beside the "ask on existing or new page" button. | |||
** '''If articles with your key word exist''', they will immediately appear in blue, underneath your search word. | |||
*** Select the most appropriate article and click the "ask on existing or new page" button. | |||
*** You will be directed to an "Edit Discuss" page where you can type in your question in the box provided. | |||
** '''If there are no articles with your key word''', just click the "ask on existing or new page" button. | |||
