As a methodological tool, evidence-based management can assess the technological advantages and economical value of medical consumables scientifically, and select the most cost-effective products into the hospital access directory with guarantees of the development of clinical disciplines. Now this method has been widely used for consumable access management in our hospital. Policies and processes have been established to normalize the assess, allocation, and usage, and the management mode is transformed from experience-based management into evidence-based management. With clinical nominalism being changed, the method of evidence-based management can be used for every link of comsumble management, to reduce the costs and ensure the safety and quality of medical consumables at the same time, so as to promote the rational cost of medical consumables.
