Description: “The Evidence-Based Primary Care Handbook,” authored by Mark Gabbay, is a practical guide on applying evidence-based practice within primary care settings. Unlike other books that stop at introducing the principles of evidence-based health care, this handbook takes it further by applying these principles to common clinical problems found in primary care. The book is divided into sections that cover the introduction to evidence-based health care, topics relevant to planners and Primary Care Groups, including commissioning and health economics, and practical application to 15 common clinical issues such as sore throat, asthma, and heart failure. Authored by clinicians and researchers familiar with the reality of primary care, this book provides a realistic approach to evidence-based medicine, offering insights on searching for evidence under time constraints and practicing in the absence of best evidence. It is an invaluable resource for GPs, primary care nurses, practice managers, community pharmacists, and all members of the primary health care team.
