In this final episode of the Evidence-Based Medicine Series, Dr. Busti wraps up the process by covering Steps 4 and 5 — Apply and Assess (or Adapt). Learn how to translate evidence into real-world patient care, integrate patient values and preferences, and evaluate how effectively your clinical decisions align with the best available evidence.

‍

Dr. Busti discusses the nuances of applying research findings to individual patients, the importance of shared decision-making, and how ongoing self-assessment helps clinicians evolve their practice toward true evidence-based care.

‍

This closing session ties together the EBM framework — showing how application and reflection complete the cycle that transforms not just how we practice medicine, but how we think about it.
