About the Clinical EBM Search Engines

The Clinical EBM Search Engines were developed at the AHSL in order to simultaneously search through several of the most highly used evidence-based resources for clinical information. The ranking system for search results has been adapted from the Oxford Center for Evidence-Based Medicine – Levels of Evidence. As an additional feature, each search engine contains customized search strategies to limit to information pertinent to the clinical specialty or targeted user group.

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 external clinical evidence from systematic research. - David L. Sackett (BMJ 1996; 312: 71-2)
