Evidence-based practice (EBPs) are occupational practices developed based on scientific evidence. Integration of EBPs is aimed at improving patient care to improve clinical outcomes.
Cell free DNA (cfDNA) analysis for the purpose of diagnostics is currently practiced for non-invasive prenatal screening of cell free fetal DNA (cffDNA), and is anticipated to be leveraged fo...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the loss of dopamine and the disruption of brain circuits (basal ganglia and cortex) that are responsible for normal cognitive and motor per...
Psychiatric disorders are among the leading causes of disability worldwide. One fifth of the population will suffer from a psychiatric disorder in their lifetime. Antipsychotic and antidepres...
The starting point for an interaction between a patient and a clinician is almost always a set of clinical facts (aka a phenotype). Phenotype-first medicine is the standard way in which the p...

Urinalysis is one the oldest, most established, and most frequently ordered laboratory tests. However, there is wide variation in the methods, processes, quality checks, specifications,...
Autologous cell based interventions, which include mesenchymal stem cells, are mostly unproven therapies increasingly being applied for musculoskeletal and other medical disorders by medical ...
Patient Blood Management (PBM) is an emerging clinical concept designed to reduce unnecessary, excessive and avoidable blood transfusions. Interest in PBM has grown rapidly throughout t...
Pathology departments are under significant pressure to meet the demands of a precise medicine environment where general phenotypic attributes are no longer sufficient for accurately defining...
Why did we change focus from the 3Rs to Systematic Reviews? Questionnaires on the 3Rs have revealed that the 3R search gets no high priority and the 3R search process is never included in fun...
In November of 2013 the AHA/ACA jointly proposed new guidelines for the management of hypercholesterolemia, the first full update in over a decade. The charge was to create evidence bas...
There is agreement among clinicians that laboratory analyses are indispensable for correct diagnosis of disease, therapy, and patient monitoring. It is evident that laboratory data should be...
Although robust and clinically meaningful biomarkers are key to achieving the current vision for precision (molecularly based), cancer medicine (patient stratification, early diagnosis, drug...
Clinical networks link groups of professionals and organisations from primary, secondary and tertiary care, shifting emphasis from institutional to patient needs and outcomes. One of the main...
Clinical laboratory information provides decision support for most healthcare providers and impacts care processes and patient outcomes throughout the entire health services delivery system....
Blood culture contamination is a huge problem in the hospital. If strict aseptic technique is not used, patients can be treated unnecessarily, leading to complications from intravenous antimi...
Synaptic dysfunction and loss caused by age-dependent accumulation of synaptotoxic Amyloid beta (Abeta)1-42 oligomers is proposed to underlie cognitive decline in Alzheimers disease (AD). Syn...
We present a personalized medicine suite of software applications developed at UCSF for multiple sclerosis (MS): the MS Bioscreen. This new tool addresses the challenges of the dynamic manage...
