Profile of EvidenceVariable for Evidence Based Medicine IG. The DichotomousPatientImportantOutcome Profile is used to provide a common variable definition for the 'intended' variable in the role of 'outcome' in Evidence Resources, to allow mapping evidence with different observaed variables that relate to the same intended outcome.
