This lively handbook on the fundamentals of Evidence-based Medicine
(EBM) leads the reader, step by step, through a process that
proceeds from a patient's medical history, via information searches
and critical appraisal of the literature, to recommendations for
treatment. Using a simple four-step approach, the author illustrates how to
develop better questions and more effective searches, resulting in
objective and clinically relevant information that can be evaluated
and implemented in day-to-day practice. Sherlock Holmes and Dr
Watson, the famous fictional detectives, assist throughout, drawing
parallels between criminal and medical investigation, and
simplifying the processes and themes of EBM. Evidence-Based Medicine in Sherlock Holmes' Footsteps is a concise, accessible and instructive introduction to EBM for medical students, health care trainees, doctors and allied health professionals, and a valuable resource for anyone wanting to improve their ability to search, access and interpret the wealth of information at the fingertips of today's medical community.
