The practice of evidence-based medicine is a process that creates the need for clinically important information about diagnosis, prognosis, therapy, and other clinical and health care problems. The objective is to emphasize the current situation of evidence-based rheumatology, highlighting the advances and limitations that the specialty has in this regard. The evidence-based rheumatology provides scientifically based recommendations for clinical practice as a result of the analysis of numerous information generated by reliable sources. In the specialty of rheumatology there is still a group of diseases in which the experience of clinical practice is what guides the work of professionals, since there is no evidence for them supported by extensive research.

Palabras clave : evidence-based medicine; evidence-based rheumatology; clinical practice; research.
