Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a concept used to create medical protocols.


“It sounds so believable and benign...By the 1990s, doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals practice was geared to protocols, being geared by protocols, and shaped by protocols. Once these protocols were instituted, it became very difficult for doctors and nurses to use their own clinical acumen, they had to follow protocols. So what's happened with the evidence-based approach, is that it's become a form of dogma, an ideology, and this is the issue with evidence-based practice, because a lot of the evidence is created around quantitative research and the randomized control trial, and that's funded by various funding mechanisms and also the pharmaceutical industry
