    Description
    This course is an introduction to the practice of Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) in the hospital setting. EBM aims for the ideal that healthcare professionals should make "conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best evidence" in their everyday practice. The student will learn the process of evidence synthesis which is using systematic reviews of the medical literature to evaluate the best evidence on specific clinical topics. Then, using the concept of knowledge translation, develop clinical practice procedures from the selected treatment options for specific cases based on the best research, patient preferences and individual patient characteristics.
