Getting evidence to prescribers and patients or how to make EBM a reality

Bringing all available evidence on therapy efficacy to users is a necessary step in the evidence-based medicine paradigm. Today, the needs of physicians in medical information, including therapeutic information, are not met. Further, the information reaching the doctors is rarely consistent with the available evidence. The growth rate of emerging evidence and its increasing complexity make the doctors unable to cope with it within the current medical information system. So, there is a real need to sort out a new way for transferring therapeutic information to doctors and patients. We conceived a new paradigm and designed an Internet process based on it by which unbiased evidence is brought to doctors in such a format that it can be accessed and used during the visit.
