Abstract:
Hierarchies of evidence are an important and influential tool for appraising evidence in medicine. In recent years, hierarchies have been formally adopted by organizations including the Cochrane Collaboration [1], NICE [2,3], the WHO [4], the US Preventive Services Task Force [5], and the Australian NHMRC [6,7]. The development of such hierarchies has been regarded as a central part of Evidence-Based Medicine (e.g. [8-10]), a movement within healthcare which prioritises the use of epidemiological evidence such as that provided by Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs).

Kerry, Roger. "Causation in evidence based medicine." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2017. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/40494/.

Abstract:
Evidence based medicine (EBM) offers an established framework for the generation, interpretation, and utilisation of information in medicine and the health sciences. Central to the practice of EBM is, I argue, the notion of causation. This thesis makes an original contribution to the philosophy of EBM through a unique identification of a causal theory in EBM, and then by demonstrating a reconceptualised theory of causation better suited to evidence based person centred care. PART 1 of this thesis demonstrates that a very specific idea of causation can be witnessed within the structure of EBM.

Abstract:
Evidence based medicine uses hierarchies of evidence to justify knowledge claims that are made. These knowledge claims are important because they dictate which treatment interventions are provided and funded, medicolegal standards and the medical research agenda. It is therefore interesting that different hierarchies can be used as this suggests that knowledge claims can be justified in different ways. This thesis presents a critical analysis of evidence based medicine, using the method of analytical philosophy, to improve understanding of the concept. The thesis is divided into two sections.

In recent years the continued provision of homeopathy through the NHS has been increasingly questioned as part of the ascendency of evidence-based medicine (EBM). Indeed, in 2009 the House of Common’s Science and Technology committee commenced an ‘Evidence Check’ inquiry into Government policy supporting the NHS provision of homeopathic treatments. The controversy over whether homeopathic treatments ‘really’ work and whether they should be available through the NHS has generated much debate: at the h

“Evidence Based Medicine” (EBM) urges that medical recommendations be based on the best research evidence, rather than on clinical judgement.

This is because actual models of EBM encourage physicians to focus exclusively on research probabilities and so to neglect relevant information about patients.

Delivering good quality care is a complex endeavor that is highly dependent on patient information and medical knowledge. When decisions about the care of a patient are made, they must, as far as possible, be based on research-derived evidence rather than on clinical skills and experience alone. Evidence based medicine (EBM) is the conscientious and judicious use of current best evidence in conjunction with clinical expertise as well as patient values and preferences to guide healthcare decisions.

Abstract:
The use of diagnostic tests is central to the practice of modern medicine, but knowing which test to use, and when, can be problematic. To make evidence-based diagnoses, clinicians need efficient ways of accessing diagnostic studies, interpreting the results of several studies, and checking the applicability of studies to their own setting. The aim of this thesis was to explore solutions to these problems by addressing a specific clinical question; What is the best screening test for latent tuberculosis in patients undergoing transplantation?
