Critical Appraisal Online Tutorial: A brief (and hopefully fun) online tutorial on the basics of critical appraisal of therapeutic interventions. The emphasis is on evaluating efficacy claims of primary studies using superiority designs.

"I've been attending seminars with the Delfini Group since 2001. They have played an instrumental role in the enhancement of our P & T process. Their programs mix together an enthusiasm for evidence-based medicine with factual market-driven ideas to efficiently utilize the available resources. The Delfini programs motivated me to plan a health system retreat in 2002. The retreat was an opportunity for multiple P & T committee members (hospital, primary care clinics, health plan) and supporting staff to explore the importance of evidence-driven decisions in the P & T process. The program included Delfini presentations and working sections introducing tools to improve efficiency. Of course the retreat was just a beginning, a starting point to build upon. And build we have! Our P & T presentation format and discussions have become more efficient, and we have standardized decision algorithms that help during crossroad discussions for an individual therapy. The evidence will never have all the answers. But this process brings a framework of support that has improved efficiency and, I believe, a greater satisfaction for committee members with the difficult task of P & T therapy evaluations and literature review."
