Abstract
Background and Objective In Taiwan, there is no well-designed indicator framework for evidence-based medicine that is promoted in recent decades. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop an evidence-based medicine indicator framework that can help medical education in assessment of competency of evidence-based medicine. Method This study developed evidence-based medicine indicator framework (EBMIF) through two steps. The first step was expert focus group that can openly generate relevant elements of evidence-based medicine competency. The second step was Delphi that can structure information and evaluate consensus among experts. Results The result showed that EBMIF was established as four domains with nine indicators. The indicators were appropriate with expert consensus in the final version. Conclusion The EBMIF was verified as an appropriate framework. However, quality level under each indicator needs further research in future.
