ObjectivesTo determine the level of knowledge and practice of evidence-based medicine (EBM) and the attitudes towards it and to identify the factors associated with its practice among primary care practitioners in Selangor, Malaysia.SettingThis cross-sectional study was conducted in randomly selected health clinics in Selangor. Data were collected from primary care physicians using self-administered questionnaires on knowledge, practice and attitudes regarding EBM.ParticipantsThe study included 225 respondents working in either government or private clinics. It excluded house officers and those working in public and private universities or who were retired from practice.ResultsA total of 32.9% had a high level of EBM knowledge, 12% had a positive attitude towards EBM and 0.4% had a good level of its practice. The factors significantly associated with EBM practice were ethnicity, attitude, length of work experience as a primary care practitioner and quick access to online reference applications on mobile phones.ConclusionsAlthough many physicians have suboptimal knowledge of EBM and low levels of practising it, majority of them have a neutral attitude towards EBM practice. Extensive experience as a primary care practitioner, quick access to online references on a mobile phone and good attitude towards EBM were associated with its practice.

The aim of the project Med-on-@ix is to increase the quality of care for emergency patients by the operationalisation of rescue processes. The currently available technologies will be integrated into a new emergency telemedical service system. The aim is to capture all the necessary information comprising electrocardiogram, vital signs, clinical findings, images and necessary personal data of a patient at the emergency scene and transmit this data in real time to a centre of competence. This would enable a “virtual presence” on site of an Emergency Medical Services physician (EMS-physician, the German Notarzt). Thus, we can raise the quality of EMS in total and counter the growing problem of EMS-physician shortage by exploiting the existing medical resources. In addition, this system offers EMS-physicians and paramedics consultation from a centre of competence. Thereby referring to evidence-based medicine and ensuring the earliest possible information of the hospital.

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is no longer new terminology in the healthcare system but,evidence-based CAMis still an unfamiliar term. Evidence-based medicine, a practice of medicine based on the recommendation derived from a systematic, scientific study of published data, is accepted as the standard in the healthcare.ACP Evidence-Based Guide to Complementary and Alternative Medicineby Bradly Jacobs and Katherine Gundling is reviewed. Up-to-date reference books like theACP Evidence-Based Guide to Complementary and Alternative Medicineis an essential tool for improving quality of care when the providers aim to practice evidence-based medicine.

Enhancing application of evidence-based medicine along with rigorous monitoring of quality of care is the key to improvement of the current unsatisfactory situation. However, calls to improve use of evidence-based interventions remain unheeded.

This chapter will describe what databases and registries can provide for clinicians and researchers. It will also describe the respective position of randomized clinical trials and databases/registries as complementary pillars of evidence-based medicine, and how they are of particular importance in the field of acute cardiac care. Finally, the importance of databases in quality of care processes will be discussed.
