Was ist evidenz basierte Medizin und warum ist es so wichtig für unser tägliches Handeln?

Die Evidenz basierte Medizin ist ein Grundpfeiler medizinischen Handelns und ist im täglichen Leben des Arztes und Physiotherapeuten nicht mehr wegzudenken. Dr Andreas Waltering (IQWIQ) gibt uns eine Einführung in die Evidenz basierte Medizin (EBM). Anfangen mit der Entstehungsgeschichte der EBM. Die EBM wurde im Gegensatz zu Deutschland von der Ärzteschafft selber gefordert. Im deutschsprachigen Raum wurde die EBM primär eingeführt um der Fehlversorgung entgegen zu wirken. Dr Markus Laupheimer (@swisssportscare) stellt die Fragen. Wieso ist EBM wichtig? Sollen wir den Vorlieben der Chef oder Oberärzte folgen? Oder sollen wir Patientenbezogen die EBM einsetzten? EBZ ist für ein Gesundheitssystem wichtig um Therapien die nachweislich was Bewirken zu fördern und zu bezahlen. Im Gegensatz dazu sollten Therapien die Nachweislich keinen Nutzen haben nicht von der Solidargemeinschaft bezahlt werden. Systematische Übersichtsarbeiten helfen Verzerrungen von einzelnen Studien zu vermeiden um den größten Aussagewert zu erhalten. Hierarchie der Evidenz: http://canberra.libguides.com/c.php?g=599346&p=4149721 Praktisches Beispiel in der Sportmedizin gibt es viele, jedoch eines der meisten untersuchten Therapien ist die Arthroskopie bei Gonarthrose, welche keinen Vorteil zu Placebo zeigt. #Bewegungsmedizin #Evidenzbasiert Dabei sollten wir nicht vergessen “Bewegung bringt Heilung” (https://soundcloud.com/bmjpodcasts/einfuhrung-in-die-bewegungsmedizin-bewegung-bringt-heilung-mit-dr-boris-gojanovic?in=bmjpodcasts/sets/bjsm-1) Weitere links zur Evidenzbasierten Medizin: Deutsches Netzwerk Evidenzbasierten Medizin e.V. http://www.ebm-netzwerk.de/ Center of evidence-based medicine University of Oxford IQWIQ : Institut für Qualität und Wirtschaftlichkeit im Gesundheitswesen https://www.iqwig.de/ Euch einen aktiven und bewegungsreichen Tag!

Am I safe to move? Professor Lorimer Moseley: New understanding of pain and focusing on the patient

Professor Lorimer Moseley (PT, PhD) is Chair of Physiotherapy at the University of South Australia and a professor of Clinical Neurosciences. http://people.unisa.edu.au/lorimer.moseley He combines Oxford rigour with a laconic and very popular Australian style of communication. In this podcast he addresses the questions: What’s new in our understanding of the spinal cord? What should we be telling patients? Is the ‘hands on, hands off’ debate a useful one? How do you feel the profession is performing right now? On the subject of what should we be telling patients, he argues we should train them to ask clinicians 3 questions. 1.How do I know my pain system is over-protective? 2.What can I do to retrain my system to be less protective? 3.Am I safe to move? You can find his patient website ‘Tame the Beast’ here: https://www.tamethebeast.org/#home And is previous BJSM podcast was on tendons. It has had >17K listens: http://ow.ly/5OGN30gkaD7.

Would school rugby be better if collisions and tackles were banned? Prof Allyson Pollock

Allyson M Pollock is professor of public health and Director of Institute of Health and Society in the Medical Faculty of Newcastle University. She is a public health doctor and has been researching injuries and rugby injuries for more than ten years. She takes what she describes as the ‘child’s perspective’ and asks – Do children know the risks of playing school rugby? Do all schools have appropriate risk mitigation? She reminds us that the health benefits of physical activity are well proven – but if one critically reviews the literature those benefits have not been proven for school rugby. This is a controversial position that is strongly countered by others. BJSM doesn’t have a position in this debate – our job is to highlight that there is a respectful debate and to encourage scrutiny of the existing evidence. We encourage researchers to add new data to this question and similar ones in sport.
