A comprehensive and easy-to-use collection of concise clinical practice guidelines, with supplementary documents for proximity care.

This is a unique collection of high-quality guidelines for primary care, which combines solid clinical expertise with the best available evidence. The recommendations are continuously updated, following the latest developments in clinical medicine, and associate evidence with practice. This collection is an indispensable source of practical information for primary care.

• Nearly 1,000 concise guides covering a wide range of medical pathologies in primary care, including descriptions of diagnoses and treatments.
• More than 4,000 high-quality evidence summaries to support the provided recommendations. The guides use an evidence coding system (A to D), ranging from solid evidence (A) for which new research is unlikely to change conclusions, to weak evidence (D) for which the effect estimate is uncertain.
• A library of 1,500 high-quality images representing various common and rare dermatological conditions, as well as electrocardiograms and ocular images.

EBM recommendations are published by Duodecim Publishing Company Ltd, owned by the largest scientific medical society in the Nordic countries, the Finnish Medical Society Duodecim, which has more than 20,000 physician members. EBM clinical practice guidelines are based on advanced methodologies and recognized sources of evidence-based medicine, such as the GRADE working group and the Cochrane Collaboration®.

In Finland, their country of origin, EBM clinical practice guidelines are the reference tool for almost all general practitioners and many specialists.

Currently, we offer this collection free of charge for a limited time. Annual subscription rates will be communicated later.
