Evidence for clinical decisions comes as quantitative research, qualitative research, mixed methods research, knowledge from and about clinician expertise, and knowledge about patient-valued preferences.

In practice

A decision drawing on a trial, an interview study, and what this patient wants.

Where people slip

Only the first three are published. The last two are evidence and are rarely recorded as such.
