Evidence Packages

How do we complete this process? There are four steps

	Doctor Evidence will integrate your medical condition, preferences and needs into a “framed question” that is very specific for medical research. This framed question will focus on your most relevant medical need and be the basis of your Evidence-Based Medicine research packet. An example of framed question: "Is a coronary stent, compared to open heart surgery, as effective in preventing heart attack and death in diabetics with one clogged artery?" (Click here for more examples of framed questions)
	The Doctor Evidence medical librarian(s) will search the international medical information network, using unique search engines, subscriptions, and other state-of-the-art technologies to locate evidence that will answer your framed question.
	A doctor, with expertise in Evidence-Based Medicine, will then critically evaluate the evidence (abstracts and summaries of clinical studies) for its validity and relevance to your framed question. The abstracts (summaries) that answer your framed question are selected and stored for your review.
	All of your medical evidence (abstracts and full text articles) will be delivered and stored in an easy-to-use Personal Evidence Portal, that is secured by your own login password. The Portal provides you with many resources to help you to understand the medical evidence. For example, the abstracts of evidence are connected to a medical dictionary that enables you to get easy to understand definitions of medical terms. At your choice we will also provide a login and portal for your primary physician so they can also have access to the medical evidence. This additional service, at no charge, enables your personal physician to evaluate and translate the evidence with you, and help you make an informed decision about your healthcare options.

All of our services start with the Evidence-Based Medicine packages described above.
