Summary
Evidence-based medicine is the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence to make clinical decisions. Given the pace of progress in reproductive medicine, this has become an essential part of effective care. Evidence-based practice typically involves a number of steps, including asking a question, searching for evidence, critical appraisal and application of the evidence.
