Evidence-based orthopedics: One step closer!

EBO involves careful attention to the design, statistical analysis, and critical appraisal of clinical research. The delineation between “outcomes” research and “evidencebased medicine” is vague. Since the term evidencebased medicine was coined first at McMaster University, orthopedic surgeons and researchers have adopted their own style of critical appraisal often coined as “evidencebased orthopedics (EBO)” using a clear delineation of relevant clinical questions, a thorough search of the literature relating to the questions, a critical appraisal of available evidence and its applicability to the clinical situation, and a balanced application of the conclusions to the clinical problem.1,2
