Product Description

Product Description

This manual is designed for clinicians who want to learn how to practise and teach evidence-based medicine. Written for the busy practitioner, it is short and highly practical. It shifts the focus from theory and explanation to tactics and clinical applications, seeking to reflect the growing ability to transform critical appraisals of evidence into direct clinical action. The chapters examine areas such as diagnosis and screening, prognosis, therapy, and how to find the best evidence. The accompanying CD-ROM contains clinical examples, critical appraisals, and background papers from 14 other health disciplines. It also features extended descriptions (including sample Web pages) of several evidence sources.

5.0 out of 5 stars The standard for teaching EBM, May 24 2004
By 
Rhett Jackson (Norman, Oklahoma United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Evidence-Based Medicine: How to Practice and Teach Ebm (Paperback)
As a physician-teacher of EBM to internal medicine residents, this is the best book I've run across for this purpose. We utilize the reader's guides, first published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal and later in JAMA, written by Guyatt, Sackett, and others, which are perfectly complemented by this volume. I recommend it to all of the residents and have purchased multiple copies for house staff use (although I can't seem to keep them on the shelf...) It makes learning EBM fun and highlights its usefulness and, most importantly for busy physicians, speed. Worth reading for every physician interested in practicing medicine based on only the best evidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Concise and precise, Feb 19 2004
This review is from: Evidence-Based Medicine: How to Practice and Teach Ebm (Paperback)
Concise and precise- just what the busy clinician wants to see. And for whoever needs more info, there is an extra CD Rom that preovides just that. Few medical books had more impact on my professional behavior than this one. Buy it, read it, and follow its advise!

5.0 out of 5 stars Smashing!, Jan 26 2002
By 
Nigel Tan (Singapore, Singapore Singapore) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Evidence-Based Medicine: How to Practice and Teach Ebm (Paperback)
Short and concise, this book really excels at demystifying EBM and making it easier (and more importantly, fun!). The use of flash cards for summarising points is great, and it's clear that the authors are enjoying themselves teaching EBM. This honestly is the first medical book that I'd classify as 'un-putdownable'!
