I think your question is fine. But if you want another idea. I just did one. How does continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion compare to insulin injections with glycemic control.

Has your instructor (or textbook) given you a specific format to use? You may be required to use the PICU format:

P = Patient, population, or problem

I = Intervention

C = Comparison with other treatments

O = Outcomes

If you are required to use the PICO format, your instructor may want you to re-phrase your question. To do that, start by identifying your P, I, C, and O ... and then put that in a sentence.

The other relies you got are correct.

My EB question is a systematic review. This was my PICO question: In a population of diabetic adults, how does continuous insulin infusion compare to multiple daily sticks, impact glucose control.
