Evidence-Based Medicine

What is Evidence Based Medicine?
"Evidence-Based Medicine is the conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients. The practice of evidence-based medicine means integrating individual clinical expertise with the best available clinical evidence from systematic research." [Source: Sackett, D.L. et al. (1996) Evidence Based Medicine: What it is and What it isn't. BMJ 13 January 1996; 312 (7023): 71-72.]
