Description
Summary:This new resource provides a comprehensive overview of evidence-based medicine and its relevance to clinical decision-making. Emphasizing the patient throughout, it covers the basic skills for finding, understanding, and judging medical evidence. The tools for using this evidence to make patient-centered clinical decisions are presented in a thorough and practical manner, demystifying the all-important (but underused) process of decision analysis. It's an ideal textbook for students, as well as a timely resource for practicing physicians who want a real-world guide to this emerging discipline.
