Navigating the Maze: Obtaining Evidence-Based Medical Information

Information Mastery: Feeling Good About Not Knowing Everything
An Evidence-Based Approach to Teaching and Practicing Medicine



Overview Pyramid Cochrane DARE ACP MEDLINE Clinical InfoRetriever Weblinks



Office of Continuing Medical Education - University of Virginia School of Medicine

Welcome
to Navigating
the Maze - a resource page for obtaining evidence-based
medical information. This Web page will introduce you
to computer-based resources that will help reduce the
WORK needed to find information based upon VALID and
RELIABLE evidence. For the busy clinician, valid and
reliable information is only as useful as the amount
of time and work it takes to find it!

On
the right side are buttons to guide you in this process.
There are links to a model protocol for "drilling
down" through a pyramid of EBM resources, useful
World Wide Web sites, pages about the individual databases,
and even search tutorials to try them out for yourself.
