  formulate a clear clinical question
BRIEF BACKGROUND
Evidence Based Practice
PRINCIPLES OF EVIDENCE BASED
     PRACTICE

1.   Practice should be based on best evidence*
2.   There is a hierarchy of evidence
3.   Evidence alone is not enough
•    Clinical expertise
•    Patient preferences

LIMITS OF EBM
• Research related
   – Sampling, bias, ethics, etc.
   – Evidence (from non-biomedical sciences)
   – Many clinical questions have not been researched

• Translating efficacy studies into clinical effectiveness

• Tool related
   – Evidence based summaries relatively few
   – Access
   – Technological changes

• Implementation
   - Knowledge, Skills, Training
   - Organizational support and mandate
   - Time

Patient Scenario #1

“Ms X is a 34 year old woman brought by her friend for
increasing binging and purging behaviors. Patient is
diagnosed with bulimia nervosa. She is reluctant to take
medication and does not believe in psychotherapy. She
is has mixed feelings regarding her eating behaviors and
any form of treatment and is afraid to relinquish control.
There is no imminent risk. You consider recommending
self-help programs as an initial treatment.
Background questions

What is standard treatment for bulimia nervosa?


Others?

Expert Opinion
Patient Scenario #2


• Mr M, 22 yr old, presents with 3 weeks history of ↓
  concentration, ↓sleep and poor appetite, agitation,
  severely depressed mood, feeling hopeless and with
  thoughts of suicide. He also feels people might be
  laughing at him on the street. He has a 3 yrs history of
  marijuana and cocaine use. Inquiry about family history
  reveals that maternal aunt “was not well” and was known
  to have “ups and downs” and had been apparently
  treated with lithium or ECT (?).

• Clinically, what are the risk factors that predict bipolar
  disorder when a patient presents with first episode of
  depression?

SUMMARY: Searching


Determined by:
• Purpose of your search
   – Clinical decision making vs.
   – Literature review
• Importance of your question
   – Does patient’s well being depend on this answer?
   – Does question appear often in practice or not?
• Background knowledge of the searcher
• Time you have
SUMMARY :
Asking structured unambiguous questions

• To clarify need :
   – what you know, what you do not know
   – what you REALLY need to know

• To locate evidence :
   – Choice of information source
   – Identify search terms

• To keep search on track
In CONCLUSION



• You own the question and the answer !

• If you have spent 15 minutes and haven’t
  found the answer, ask a librarian!

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. “ Archie Cochrane is best known for his influential book, Effectiveness and Efficiency: Random Reflections on Health Services published in 1972 [1] . The principles he set out in it so clearly were straightforward: he suggested that, because resources would always be limited, they should be used to provide equitably those forms of health care which had been shown in properly designed evaluations to be effective. In particular, he stressed the importance of using evidence from randomised controlled trials ( RCT 's) because these were likely to provide much more reliable information than other sources of evidence. In 1979 he wrote, "It is surely a great criticism of our profession that we have not organised a critical summary, by specialty or subspecialty, adapted periodically, of all relevant randomised controlled trials." [2] His challenge led to the establishment during the 1980s of an international collaboration to develop the Oxford Database of Perinatal Trials .” (Cochrane collaboration website)
  2. Translating efficacious practices to routine practice settings to produce effective results is one of the more challenging issues of evidence-based practice.
  3. Looking for best evidence—may not always be available! Sometimes systematic review not available for any of these questions. Define: Diagnostic validation study: demonstrating whether a diagnostic test is valid (can we trust it?) and reliable (would we get the same result every time?). Preferred study type is when both the new test and the gold standard are performed. Case control study: A study that compares two groups of people: those with the disease or condition under study (cases) and a very similar group of people who do not have the disease or condition (controls). Researchers study the medical and lifestyle histories of the people in each group to learn what factors may be associated with the disease or condition. For example, one group may have been exposed to a particular substance that the other was not. Also called retrospective study. Cohort study; A longitudinal research study that compares a particular outcome (such as lung cancer) in groups of individuals who are alike in many ways but differ by a certain characteristic (for example, female nurses who smoke compared with those who do not smoke). Can be either retrospective or prospective. M ention: also possible to have prevention questions. Best answered by RCTs, SRs & meta-analyses, Cohort studies, Case control studies
  4. EBP : problem based approach to clinical decision making for better patient care
  5. You need to understand the background thoroughly before addressing foreground questions Seasoned clinician needs background info for new syndromes: e.g. SARS or a new diagnostic test
  6. What, when, how, how much …
  7. What questions could we have here? Background? Foreground?
  8. One question can have many outcomes One patient can have many questions!

  14. Bulimia self-help Two interesting reviews Show them “other reviews”! 3 things in there
  15. Self help bulimia – 3 rd entry Cochrane review not cited Some controversy over where UpToDate belongs. Could be used to answer background or foreground questions. Could be considered “evidence-based” tool, or expert opinion. For the purposes of these courses, I would recommend UpToDate as being a higher level of evidence than expert opinion, but it should not be considered on the same level as a Cochrane Systematic Review. And UpToDate should definitely be considered a filtered information source. It will take you far less time to search than individual studies.
  16. 21 sys reviews, not just 5 like in cochrane—don’t know the quality Also see original research
  17. For this question, we have found something quickly. For some complex questions, you might need to tackle unfiltered sources. Clinical queries does this for you, but less control in your search This is where the librarian can help you! If you have spent 15 minutes and haven’t found anything, ask for help! Something to teach your students, too.
  18. Show different options (Canada guidelines not necessarily useful here)
  19. What other questions come to mind when you read this case? What background questions could you search for first?
  20. Background questions may differ with learner : specialty, novice vs proficient DSM IV: diagnostic criteria MDD single episode p 375 See p 385 : 10-15% adolescents with recurrent MDD develop BD I Presence of Manic or Mixed episodes predictors of BD (p 373) ? Course of BDII p 395 , Hypomanic episodes often precede or follow MD episodes
  21. PICO format works well for therapy questions (efficacy studies) comparing one intervention versus another But what about Aetiology, diagnosis, prognosis? Often Comparison not included Outcomes important! NOTE: “PICO is not meant to be a framework that must be used, it is merely a device to help frame questions and as such can be adapted (Haroon, 2010)”
  22. Prediction of conversion from unipolar depression to bipolar disorder What kind of studies best answer this question? (risk factors/prognosis question)
  23. DSM IV p 373 “It is difficult to predict whether the first episode of a MDDin a young person will ultimately evolve into a BDD some data suggest that the acute onset of severe depression especially with psychotic features and psychomotor retardation in a young person without prepubertal psychopathology is more likely to predict a bipolar course. A family history of BD may also be suggestive of subsequent development of BD.”
  24. Cochrane: SR that answers a precise question, mainly therapy Clinical Evidence (BMJ) gives a thorough evidence summary by disorder : e.g. Depression, Bipolar disorder Show Clinical Evidence: Can not answer current question but can check aetiology/risk (in Background) of a disease Show Interventions : Beneficial/unknown Show GRADE Table of evaluation of interventions for bipolar disorder (studies graded by strength of evidence) ANALOGY : Searching in EBM resources (filtered) systems, syntheses, summaries, synopses, is like going to IKEA and getting a ready made (still to be assembled) table Searching for Individual studies with selection of research methodology is like building your own table by learning carpentry first (buts and bolts of searching) – not the purpose of today’s presentation – but we show Residents in 3hrs with hands-on practice)
