Abstract
Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) is one of the clinical problem solving methods. EBM has two major characteristic. One is that it begins and ends with patients and the another is that the process is based behavioral science. In EBM, its process consists of the four steps as follows: 1. formulation of a clinical question of patients, 2. searching and selection for evidence, 3. critical appraisal for evidence, 4. application of evidence to patients.
It is important that EBM is not the way of thinking but the way of behavior. IN EBM, substance of learning for clinical problem solving is how doctors study or behave. Therefor the better patients' management could be realized by modification of doctor's behavior. I think that this point is the most significant in EBM.
