Evidence based practice
stemlyns
Hi folks,
Just want to share some of my views about evidence based practice.

1) Which one is better Evidence based or consensus based practice?

2)If evidence based is thought to be the best then what are the best resources you think to check the evidence?

3)Is there any active research done by anyone is there any thing exciting to share with other members?

EBM I guess is the clear winner. I tend to use Cochrane database for systematic reviews and Pubmed/Medline/Embase for literature search (and of course our trusted 'google scholar' ).
I look at Consensus reports with caution as they are opinions by expert panels (not based on any evidence). However, in some situations, this may prompt further research.

Merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone

Looks like a nice sources to search for litreature and wondering if there are any landmark papers(reviews)which made anyone of yoy change the way you practice.

I am always looking for evidence but wondering if there is place where all the evidence is collated to give clinical bottom line.I know searching for litreature and appraising can be painful which should be done by all EM trainees in this day and age but there should be few places where we should be able to find the evidence qollation.Just wondering what r they? It helps a lot for lazy people like me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You could try 'bestbets.org'. It's a pretty useful site to start off, if you are looking for quick answers based on available evidence...
