Abstract

Despite wide acceptance of the idea of 'evidence based medicine (EBM)', there is still a huge gap between evidence and clinical practice. Pre-appraised resources help clinicians find correct answers to clinical questions more easily and rapidly. It will briefly explain the concept and history of EBM. Frequently used pre-appraised resources like as systematic review, evidence based guidelines, health technology assessment, synopses, and clinical information database systems are also introduced.
