What research databases are you searching in? We used CINAHL or Medline. If you don't have experience in databases like these, talk to the research librarian at your school....they're generally amazingly helpful folks.

I'd go and speak with the research librarian at your school. I'm betting they can show you some great tips to make your searches more effective.

Does it have to be a nursing study, or just a quantitative study? If any, I would try PubMed or OVID as well. You can just type in "tracheostomy care" and should get several. Using PubMed, you can also choose what type of studies it should narrow the search to.

Definitely ask the librarian!

For example, here's one: http://www.o-wm.com/article/3558
