| Main results |
The interactive EBS training increased participants’ knowledge and readiness to change clinical practice. This impact diminished over time but was still evident after 12 months. | The Internet became a main popular source to seek medical information concerning screening and health care, for 39% of men and 48% of women. | Similar recommendations of EBS related to the US preventive guidelines of high grade of evidence (A/B) were composed together to elaborate a list of common diseases/methods of screening. | Expected results: the online EBS adviser will contribute to a more effective and efficient person-centred, shared decision based on evidence |
