PY - 2015 T2 - Users' Guides to the Medical Literature: A Manual for Evidence-Based Clinical Practice, 3rd ed AB - Approaches to scientific inquiry—including evidence-based medicine (EBM)—depend on how one views the nature of knowledge as evidence, how it should be acquired, and how it should be applied (epistemology). The goal of this chapter is to make the EBM perspective on this issue—seldom clearly articulated—clearer. In this discussion, we highlight the 3 key principles of EBM (see Chapter 2, What Is Evidence-Based Medicine?).
