AB Ideal  clinical  care  integrates  a  health  care  professional’s  clinical  experience,  individual  patient  preferences  and  values,  and  current  best  clinical  evidence.  Every  hospitalist  has  his  or  her  own  set  of  clinical  skills  and  experiences  and  each  patient  has  his  or  her  own  beliefs.  The  current  best  clinical  evidence,  however,  is  universal.  How  clinicians  apply  and  explain  this  evidence  to  individual  patients  and  integrate  the  evidence  into  care  plans  is  the  art  of  practicing  evidence-based  medicine  (EBM).  This  chapter  provides  practical  guidance  on  formulating  questions  and  uses  clinical  examples  to  discuss  how  to  efficiently  and  effectively  use  and  search  the  medical  literature.
