Evidence-based medicine (EBM) aims to apply the best available evidence Evidence in its broadest sense includes everything that is used to determine or demonstrate the truth of an assertion. Giving or procuring evidence is the process of using those things that are either a) presumed to be true, or b) were themselves proven via evidence, to demonstrate an assertion's truth. Evidence is the currency by which one gained from the scientific method Scientific method refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. A scientific method consists of to medical decision making.[1] It seeks to assess the quality of evidence of the risks and benefits of treatments Therapy , or treatment, is the attempted remediation of a health problem, usually following a diagnosis. In the medical field, it is synonymous with the word "treatment" (including lack of treatment).[2]
EBM recognizes that many aspects of medical care depend on individual factors such as quality- The term quality of life is used to evaluate the general well-being of individuals and societies. The term is used in a wide range of contexts, including the fields of international development, healthcare, and political science. Quality of life should not be confused with the concept of standard of living, which is based primarily on income and value-of-life The value of life is an economic value assigned to life in general, or to specific living organisms. In social and political sciences, it is the marginal cost of death prevention in a certain class of circumstances. As such, it is a statistical term, the cost of reducing the (average) number of deaths by one. It is an important issue in a wide judgments, which are only partially subject to scientific methods. EBM, however, seeks to clarify those parts of medical practice that are in principle subject to scientific methods and to apply these methods to ensure the best prediction A prediction, forecast or foretelling is a statement or claim that a particular event will occur in the future in more certain terms than a forecast. The etymology of prediction is Latin . Howard H. Stevenson writes: "Prediction is at least two things: Important and hard." Important, because we have to act, and hard because we have to of outcomes in medical treatment, even as debate continues about which outcomes are desirable[citation needed].
