Practice-based research networks (PBRNs) were developed in North America more than 20 years ago to study the health and health care events that are common in everyday primary care practice.
Abstract
Practice-based research networks (PBRNs) were developed in North America more than 20 years ago to study the health and health care events that are common in everyday primary care practice.[1][1]–[3][2] During the past 2 decades, the numbers of PBRNs have increased, and they have made major
