J. M. Barry (2004 page 6) wrote: “Medicine is not yet and may never be fully a science–the idiosyncrasies, physical and otherwise, of individual patients and doctors may prevent that–but, up to a few decades before World War I, the practice of medicine had remained quite literally almost unchanged from the time of Hippocrates more than two thousand years earlier. Then, in Europe first, medical science changed and, finally, the practice of medicine changed.”
Introduction.
In this article, we review and discuss information about evidence-based practice (EBP), the nature of evidence, the replication and integration of clinically pertinent research literature, the use of evidence-based practice in speech-language pathology, the role of teamwork in EBP, and criticisms of EBP. Culture, oral motor exercises, and witchery are considered. We use “client” rather than “patient” except when citing or discussing a publication.
