↵vii 'CINAHL subject headings are used to index the literature contained in the database. These subject headings were developed to reflect the terminology used by nursing and the allied health professionals. CINAHL subject headings follow the structure of the Medical Subject Headings, or MeSH, used by the National Library of Medicine. This structure has been used to develop 12 714 CINAHL subject headings. These subject headings are used to effectively search the database and retrieve literature citations on a specific topic.'
