Professional Practice 20 NEW! Pharmacist’s Guide to Evidence-Based Medicine Patrick J. Bryant, Pharm.D. and Heather A. Pace, Pharm.D. Electronic Prescribing Michael Van Ornum, RPh, RN NEW! Pharmacists who make clinical decisions based on experience alone often overestimate the efﬁcacy and underestimate the safety risks of drugs. This leads to variations in services and treatment that result in inappropriate care, lack of care, and increased health care costs. Evidence-based medicine (EBM) uses the scientiﬁc method as the key source of knowledge for making clinical decisions. This easy-to-use guide provides a practical approach for applying EBM principles in daily practice. This straightforward process allows pharmacists to make ﬁrm decisions and recommendations based on results of rigorously conducted clinical trials while incorporating their own clinical judgment. ● Order code P1770 Member price: $39 List price: $49 ISBN: 978-1-58528-177-0; 2008; 208 pages; softbound As healthcare technology advances, health professionals who work with prescriptions or medical orders will need to learn about electronic prescribing soon.
