ABSTRACT
Evidence-based medicine is an evolving new paradigm. With the advent of numerous new diagnostic techniques and therapeutic interventions, one needs to critically evaluate and validate them by appropriate methods before adopting them into day-to-day patient care.

Integrating individual clinical experience and patients’ perspectives with the best available external evidence is essential.
