HomeNavigating the Maze: Obtaining Evidence-Based Medical Information
Information Mastery: Feeling Good About Not Knowing Everything
An Evidence-Based Approach to Teaching and Practicing Medicine
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.
