The Medical Center Library was asked to develop a plan for teaching EBM through the 4 years of Medical School. This document reflects the development of an EBM "thread" that builds on skills throughout the 4 years. The Library's role is coordinator, instructor, website builder, and facilitator.
Evidence-based Medicine (EBM) combines individual clinical expertise with the best available clinical evidence from systematic research in making decisions about the care of individual patients. Clinical expertise is the proficiency and judgment that individual clinicians acquire through clinical experience and practice. Clinical evidence comes from patient centered clinical research which investigates the accuracy and precision of diagnostic tests, the efficacy and safety of therapeutic regimes, and the reliability of prognostic indicators. The powerful combination of clinical expertise and documented evidence results in safer, more efficacious and accurate care of the patient.
