EBM Structured Reading, Power Point Presentation and Discussion
Learning and applying EBM is a critical step toward achieving our goal of excellence in sports medicine through clinical practice, education, and research. Understanding the concepts and, more importantly, the application of EBM enables us to facilitate lifelong learning both individually and collectively, provide the best care for our patients, improve our education, publish systematic reviews, and finally evaluate research opportunities when critical gaps in level I and II knowledge exist in the literature.
