MPAS 525 - Evidence Based Medicine I 2.00 credit hours
This is the first of three courses that will focus on the basic concepts of research design and bio-statistics as they apply to medical research. Students will begin to form a basis for sound, evidence-based, clinical decision making. Core elements of evidence-based medicine will be presented including developing clinical questions, searching and appraising the medical literature, and applying evidence appropriately to the care of an individual patient. Basic descriptive and inferential statistics will be discussed. Case vignettes will be used to assist in the critique of systematic reviews and treatment guidelines. Lectures and active learning activities will encourage the development of professional oral and written communication skills of scholarly concentration to begin work on their Master’s capstone project based on three research potential tracks: Medical Education, Clinical Case Reports or Evidence-Based Medicine. The Evidence-Based Medicine track will be based solely in the literature, whereas the clinical and medical education will be both scholarly and experiential.
