Clinical performance and quality health care
-
Evidence-based health care (EBHC) is a growing movement to integrate healthcare research with healthcare practice. A key element to EBHC is convenient access to relevant high-quality evidence. The Cochrane Collaboration is an international consortium of persons dedicated to producing and maintaining systematic reviews of healthcare practice and is an invaluable resource to the EBHC movement. This article will describe EBHC briefly and will highlight how the Cochrane Collaboration supports the EBHC perspective to create an efficient and effective healthcare system.
