Evidence-Based Medicine
Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has been defined as 'the conscientious, explicit and
judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual
patients' (Sackett DL, Rosenberg WMC, Gray JAM, et al. BMJ 1996;312:71-2).

Evidence is summarized by our team of experts, principally from three
critically evaluated, very highly regarded sources:
Cochrane Systematic Reviews
Clinical Evidence
The National Guideline Clearinghouse™
Within the Medical Topics, the best available evidence and guidelines are integrated
into the content. You can find evidence and guidelines in the following sections:
Diagnosis - for diagnostic guidelines
Treatment - for guidelines relating to management; and summaries of evidence from
primary research articles and systematic reviews relevant to your treatment plan
Prevention - for evidence and guidelines relating to prevention
