If you are interested in learning more about EBM, go to the online tutorial Introduction to Evidence-Based Medicine from the Health Sciences Library, University of North Carolina (USA):

http://www.hsl.unc.edu/Services/Tutorials/ebm/welcome.htm

Page 3: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

To access the HINARI Evidence-based Medicine resources, we must Login to the HINARI website using the URL

http://www.who.int/hinari/

Page 4: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

Logging into HINARI 2We will need to enter our HINARI User Name and Password in the appropriate boxes, then click on the Login button.

Note: If you do not properly sign on, you will not have access to Evidence-based Medicine resources that are located in the Reference Sources drop down menu.

Page 5: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

From the HINARI Reference Sources A-Z list, we also can find tutorials for learning more about EBM. In this example, we will link to BMJ Learning.

Page 6: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

From the BMJ Learning’s Browse our modules listing, we have clicked on Clinical Epidemiology and located four EBM-related tutorials.

Page 7: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

From the Reference Sources A-Z list, there are four valuable EBM- related sites. First, we will click on the Clinical Evidence link, a resource for informing treatment decisions and improving patient care. It is published by the BMJ Publishing group.

Page 8: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

In the Clinical Evidence site, you can search by Sections, Full review list or (keyword) Search this site.

Also note that there is a Clinical Evidence Userguide in multiple languages and links to the Latest updated reviews.

Page 9: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

Using the Search this site option, we have completed a keyword search for tuberculosis and identified 73 documents.

The links include clinical evidence Guidelines, Keypoints, Interventions and Updates about this topic.

Page 10: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

We have further limited this search by combining tuberculosis and HIV. This has resulted in 56 documents. We will click on the link to Tuberculosis in people with HIV.

Page 11: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

Definition Clinical Practice Guidelines

"Clinical practice guidelines are systematically developed statements to assist practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances" (Institute of Medicine, 1990)

Page 54: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

Overview of Guidelines• Describe a range of generally accepted approaches

for the diagnosis, management, or prevention of specific diseases or conditions

• Define practices that meet the needs of most patients in most circumstances

• Are recommendations that are based on evidence from a rigorous systematic review and synthesis of the published medical literature

• Primarily for use by clinicians--physicians, nurses, and other health professionals in clinical practice

Question for next two resources

• Both Trip Database and Evidence Updates are aggregators that search various EBM tools for results to keyword searches.

• The problem is that the results are often resources that are fee-based and users are asked for their username and password or requested to pay a fee.

• Do you think these should be included or excluded? Or should they just be mentioned in the bibliography at the end?

Page 76: Table of Contents – Part B HINARI Resources –Clinical Evidence –Cochrane Library –EBM Guidelines –BMJ Practice –HINARI EBM Journals

Trip Database is a clinical search tool for health professionals to identify quality clinical evidence for clinical practice. It allows simultaneous searching of multiple sites which speeds up the question answering process.

Registration is required but free and gives the users additional resources.

Review/Summary

• Evidence-based practice depends on knowing the most recent, valid scientific knowledge.

• This involves finding the ‘best’ studies.

• Sometimes others have evaluated the quality of the studies, including methodology; many new evidence-based tools mentioned in this tutorial provide evaluation.

• When there is no evaluation available, it is essential to evaluate the validity of the study.

• Tools for evaluating studies can be found in the Evaluating the Evidence section in the EBM tutorial mentioned earlier and found at:

• It is always important to consider studies in terms of applicability to and values of the local patient/situation.

• Evidence-based practice is a developing field and new, useful resources are continuously being developed.
