If you aren't already familiar with it, TRIP is a UK clinical database designed to allow clinicians to find the best evidence to answer their clinical questions.
TRIP presents search results in a hierarchy based on the level of evidence, so you always see the highest quality information, for example, systematic reviews or metaanalysis, first (but you can sort the results by date or relevance too).
TRIP has an easy to use simple search, but also offers two other ways to search in a more sophisticated way.
The advanced search option is very similar to the same feature in Google and allows you to combine search terms in different ways to find the information you want (including phrase searching, limiting by year and excluding words).
The PICO (Patient/Population Intervention Comparison Outcome) interface allows you easily break your search down into its most important elements which is really useful when answering a clinical question.
TRIP is still accessible for free outside of the NHS, but with more limited search functionality.
A great resource for finding high quality health information, TRIP is a great starting point for any literature search...
