All you need to know about EBM: A founder's guide to evidence, guidelines & getting back to the core

Описание: What was medicine like before evidence-based medicine (EBM)? Gordon Guyatt, MD, the pioneer who coined the term EBM, reveals how a revolutionary movement transformed clinical practice from reliance on expert opinion and intuition to systematic evaluation of research evidence. Dr Guyatt candidly discusses both the triumphs and limitations of the EBM’s evolution while emphasizing a crucial insight that challenges the “cookbook medicine” critique: most clinical decisions require personalized shared decision-making between doctors and patients, because evidence alone cannot account for individual values and preferences. Hosted by Roman Jaeschke, MD, MSc.
