Abstract

The objective of this editorial is to implicate the role of Indian Journal of Medical and Health Sciences (IJMHS) in Evidence-based medicine (EBM) and Evidence-based healthcare (EBHC). Evidence-based healthcare is contemporarily conceived on the view that clinical decisions should be based on the best available scientific evidence but recognizing patient preferences, the context of healthcare and the judgment of the clinician. Evidence-based healthcare is a process that identifies policy or clinical questions and addresses these questions by generating knowledge and evidence to effectively and appropriately deliver healthcare in ways that are effective, feasible, and meaningful to specific populations, cultures, and settings. The IJMHS in this regard welcomes articles on all aspects highlighting the role and implications of EBM and EBHC in developing countries in order to foster a strong platform to develop such models in the region. 

Keywords: Evidence-based medicine; Evidence-based healthcare; Journal’s role; Developing countries.
