“In patients with an acute MI, are
antiarrhythmic drugs more effective than
standard therapy in preventing sudden
cardiac death?”
I • = Antiarrhythmic drugs
C • = Standard therapy
P • = Pulmonary fibrosis
I • = High-resolution CT
C • = Lung biopsy
O • = Sensitivity/specificity/PVs/LRs
What is critical appraisal?
• Title
• Abstract
• Introduction
Should I • Does this study identify a gap in the evidence?
read it? • Were the objectives clear and focused?
• Methods
• Were inclusion and exclusion criteria clearly stated?
• Are the outcomes patient-oriented or surrogate
Should I markers for long-term health outcomes?
• How long was the study? (study duration)
continue?
