Grounded theory- evidence based medicine embeddedness: An enigmatic conundrum
Authors

Abstract
Grounded Theory is the future of qualitative research. It has even made inroads into the vast arena of Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) which is a tributary and territory of Health Sciences. Grounded Theory is sitting pretty at the centre of a beautiful quincunx and imparting to the quincunx an ethereal and eternal beauty and bounty. The magnanimity of this quincuncial arrangement will appeal to all scholars actively pursuing their research with Grounded Theory methodology. In all probability, this marvellous piece of futuristic research is replete with the intellectual grace and moral spontaneity of the contemporary times. This theory is going to be all pervasive in the spatial and temporal dimensions of the present day society with its myriad of vicissitudes and commonalities. A schism may also be attributed to it so far as its opponents are concerned but those very opponents will have to eat an humble pie in the end. This theory is an embodiment of academic scholasticism as has been portended by its staunch exponents Strauss and Glaser. This paper attempts sincerely to draw congruencies and/or similarities between the practice of Evidence Based Medicine and its embeddedness in the Grounded Theory. Though Grounded Theory research in the vast area of Evidence Based Medicine is in its nascency, yet it is sure to make an everlasting impact so far as medical research is concerned. It is sincerely hoped that this axiomatization may not be consigned to the realms of the past. Future holds the key for the Evidence Based Medicine and Grounded theory continuum embeddedness.
