Evidence-Based Orthopaedics: The Best Answers to Clinical Questions
Journal Title: Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
I found this book accommodating because it covers of the common issues in orthopedics practice. This is a collection of best-evidenced treatment for common orthopaedic conditions. There are 100 chapters in this book and arranged into 7 sections; spine, upper extremity, pediatrics, trauma, foot and ankle, arthroplasty and sports medicine. The first chapter is on evidence-based orthopaedics, written by Dr Wright himself, an expert in the area of evidence-based medicine. This chapter is relevant as it facilitate those unfamiliar with “evidencebased orthopaedics” “level of evidence”, “grade of recommendation” etc. This chapter forms the basis of understanding for the subsequent chapters of the book.
