摘要
Background: Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a strategy for the standardization of medical decision-making. The purpose of this review was to demonstrate the most important tools of EBM and to critically appraise them. Methods: The current literature concerning the subject is reviewed. A clinical example for the systematic use of EBM in diagnostic tests is explained in detail. Results: The risk of an increasing bureaucratic hindrance of medical procedures by EBM is weighed agains the advantages of a systematic strategy for the valid assessment of medical information. According to the clinical example EBM proves to be a valuable tool in the quantitative estimation of residual risk and reliability of diagnostic tests in everyday clinical practice. Conclusion: The critical use of the systematic tools of EBM for clinical decision-making is recommended.
