Abstract: (CIT): This examination of the evidence-based medicine movement first reviews some recent events that have accelerated the search for ways to improve the quality of practice, which tends to be defined as the degree to which practice is following evidence-based guidelines. It proposes five ways to make research more relevant to practice: The first is the conventional and most widely and aggressively pursued path of pushing evidence through a pipeline to practitioners by means of continuing education, systematic reviews of the research literature converted into evidence-based practice guidelines, and the simplification of those guidelines with chart reminders, video and computer-based information systems, and similar devices to make the dissemination and application of the evidence more efficient and manageable in practice settings. Some major limitations and consequences of this "pipeline" strategy will be reviewed. The second approach is to shift the priorities of research-funding agencies and processes of peer review. Such priorities would reorient the production of research to make it more relevant to practice.
