emphasis on rigorous evidence. Leaders in the field discuss best
practice in the light of systematic reviews and randomised control
trials, and how best to treat where the information is less clear.
Case histories provide intriguing discussions on how to apply the
evidence in real life situations.
Evidence-based Cardiology also includes free access to
the latest evidence, which is automatically posted on a companion
website.
