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.

From the Back Cover

A collection of handouts for Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) workshops run at the Centre for Evidence–based Medicine, University of Queensland which have been attractively presented in full colour as an ideal tool for learning EBM skills individually and in a group setting.

Written by world famous teachers of EBM, the book is split into three sections
Part 1: Introduction to evidence–based medicine, Part 2: The steps in evidence–based medicine, Part 3: Resources and further reading which take you through the principles of EBM. Helpful exercises based on journal articles are included as well as advice on how to access the relevant resources. Designed to provide clear help in finding useful answers from the literature for clinicians, the processes are laid out and then worked through with clinical examples.
