Evidence Based Medicine (3rd Edition)

Book by Sharon E. Straus, W. Scott Richardson, Paul Glasziou, R. Brian Haynes and Sharon E. Strauss. Churchill Livingstone 320 pages Turtleback Published 2005-04-29. Description: Evidence Based Medicine provides a clear explanation of the central questions of EBM how to ask answerable clinical questions, how to translate them into effective searches for the best evidence, how to critically appraise that evidence for its validity and importance, and how to integrate it with patients values and preferences.

  • New edition of fantastically successful book on EBM, written by the best-known authorities in the world.
  • Will focus on the major challenge of practicing EBM in real time, providing tips and tools to help achieve this

    • Focuses on the major challenge of practicing EBM in real time, providing tips and tools to help achieve this.
    • All clinical examples are new.
    • Expanded section on limitations of EBM - discusses common criticisms and the real limitations and how they can be overcome.
    • Highlights the problems with the CAT databases available on the web.
    • Expanded section on clinical decision rules in diagnosis.
    • Interactive and user-friendly CD.
    • Downloadable EBM resources for handhelds.
        • Review:: 'The standard for teaching EBM As a physician-teacher of EBM to internal medicine residents, this is the best book I've run across for this purpose. We utilize the reader's guides, first published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal and later in JAMA, written by Guyatt, Sackett, and others, which are perfectly complemented by this volume. I recommend it to all of the residents and have purchased multiple copies for house staff use (although I can't seem to keep them on the shelf...) It makes learning EBM fun and highlights its usefulness and, most importantly for busy physicians, speed. Worth reading for every physician interested in practicing medicine based on only the best evidence.
        • Review:: 'Concise and precise Concise and precise- just what the busy clinician wants to see. And for whoever needs more info, there is an extra CD Rom that preovides just that. Few medical books had more impact on my professional behavior than this one. Buy it, read it, and follow its advise!
        • Review:: 'Not bad, not bad at all. Dr. Sackett's book is a well thought out review of evidence-based medicine (EBM), and is the source of what seems to be the most often noted definition of EBM. This is a must-have reference for those interested in evidence-based action (which applies to much more than just medicine). However, according to Sackett's own definition, this edition is getting a little long in the tooth. He also follows a pretty classical approach to the logic of rational decision making, which may or may not suit the reader.
        • Review:: 'Smashing! Short and concise, this book really excels at demystifying EBM and making it easier (and more importantly, fun!). The use of flash cards for summarising points is great, and it's clear that the authors are enjoying themselves teaching EBM. This honestly is the first medical book that I'd classify as 'un-putdownable'!
        • Review:: 'Fine Primer This well done book is partly an introduction to teaching/practicing Evidence Based Medicine (EBM)and partly an act of evangelism. The authors are concerned not only with describing the basic methods of EBM but also with convincing readers that this is the appropriate way to practice and teach clinical medicine. EBM and its precursor movements are based on the correct realization that physicians tend not to be very critical about clinical practice, much of which is learned by emulation. This book builds on an existing movement and the presence of widely available online resources to tap into appropriate critical evaluations of clinical practice. In doing so, the authors attempt to educate physicians about how to use these resources, relatively simple statistical tools that can be incorporated into application of good clinical literature to practice, and how to teach these methods. Because the authors are academics who wish to influence medical education, there is a good deal of emphasis on educational methods. While this may be an apparent short coming for readers who are not academics, it is actually worthwhile for all physicians because self-education is a constant part of our job. This book is very well done with some nice features. It is small and has a durable plastic cover, designed to carried in pockets or in a medical bag, there is a small CD with good examples, and a set of plasticized flash cards on major key points. Drawbacks are relatively minor. More information on how to analyze clinical trials and studies would be useful but in a concise book, something has to give way. Used carefully, the information in this book may change your practice and teaching methods.

        • Review:: 'Amazing Language Book for Nursing Students Amazing book, take the time to fill in all of the exercises. It takes a while but well worth it. I got an A in this class because of this!
        • Review:: 'Steller book This workbook is really great. It explains how to combine prefixes, suffixes and root words in the medical language in simple terms. If you have never ever had Anatomy and Physiology, this is the book for you. Even if you are going to take the A & P course, this would help you somewhat. The book keeps repeating what you have learned in different ways to reinforce your knowledge. The CD is good too. Really pretty easy but it's a fun tool. I only found 1 mistake in the CD so far, but I have only been through it for the first few chapters. I didn't need the rest because the book was so good. Have fun with it.
        • Review:: 'For CMT exam I used this book to prepare for the Certified Medical Transcriptionist exam. It is well-organized and makes the study of body systems very, very easy. It gives you several ways to learn the same information--pictures, words, having you write out answers in different ways. Heavy on prefixes and suffixes, which makes it easier to figure out unknown medical terms. I found the book a fabulous guide---and I passed my test, too! :D
        • Review:: 'Crystal clear and easy to use! Davi-Ellen Chabner's book is the best of its kind that I have read. I first used it as a student of medical terminology. Then, as luck would have it, Mrs. Chabner was the instructor for the human diseases course I took at an adult education certificate program in medical transcription. Talk about good fortune!
        • Review:: 'Great!! For anyone interested in the human body, medical information on diseases and tests. Very well written, understandable, highly informative. Fantastic book for beginning students or anyone. Wonderful encephal food. You'll find yourself saying, "So that's where they get that name from".
