Factors influencing the knowledge of 'evidence-based medicine' in sixth-year medical students.

摘要

Although teaching methods and systems in medicine vary among Western countries, medical practices have become more homogeneous in recent years due to the rapid spread of scientific medical information. The development of Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) was a major evolution in medicine and has led to changes in medical education. It has been shown that students embrace EBM if they see these practices modeled daily in medical decision-making. If EBM is taught as a theory and not seen in clinical practice, students may believe that EBM is unimportant in their own practice.
