Einführung in die evidenzbasierte Medizin

Evidence-based medicine (EbM) has become indispensable in both research and practice. A crucial foundation for applying EbM is the ability to read publications correctly. Trisha Greenhalgh describes how to specifically search for medical publications related to a particular clinical question, introduces the various types of medical-scientific publications, explains their differences, and provides a clear explanation of how to critically evaluate and interpret them. She equips the reader—whether a medical student, physician, or professional in another area of healthcare—with concrete questions, checklists, and practical examples, offering a methodology to navigate the increasingly dense information jungle and apply knowledge in everyday practice for the benefit of the patient. The new edition includes updates.
