Evidence-Based Inter-Professional Health Care 1 - MEDI912

This unit introduces students to the principles underpinning and practice of evidence-based health care, whereby research evidence is integrated with clinical expertise and client/patients’ values. Specifically, students will learn how to formulate clinical questions about diagnosis, prognosis and treatment, and locate and critically appraise relevant high-quality evidence to answer those questions. This unit provides an evidence-based framework for concurrent and future units, that is embedded in the MD curriculum to enhance communication, reflection and life-long learning skills. By integration with a interprofessional clinical component, students will develop foundational skills in how to implement evidence-based health care in clinical practice.
