In recent years much attention is paid to evidence-based medicine, i.e. to modem technologies of search, analysis and sum-marizing the up-to-date information, related to the most effective, safety and efficient approaches to treatment, allowing to take optimal decisions at national, population and individual levels. We assessed the potential of the evidence-based medi¬cine in its application in occupational health.

Key words: evidence-based medicine, occupational health, perspective
