    Getting Involved with PURLs

    The PURLS system was developed in a collaborative partnership of the Family Physicians Inquiries Network (FPIN) and The Journal of Family Practice.

    PURL Reality Checker
    PURL Reality Checkers assist in the validity of the PURL by answering 3 questions:

    1. Is the practice supported by this study a current practice for you?
    2. If not, how likely are you to adopt the practice?
    3. What are the challenges to applying this change in your practice?

    PURL Nominator
