Welcome to the International Centre for Allied Health Evidence
A global initiative in evidence-based research for allied health practitioners.
The University of South Australia is home to the International Centre for Allied Health Evidence (iCAHE). iCAHE was launched in August 2003.
iCAHE provides essential resources for allied health workers, researchers, educators, clinicians, policy makers, administrators and patients across the world.
The centre provides evidence-based solutions to allied health problems and helps clinicians ensure that their treatment strategies are based on the best available evidence.
iCAHE focuses on producing resources that relate to physiotherapy/physical therapy, occupational therapy, podiatry, medical radiation and complementary or alternative therapies.
iCAHE is a member of the Sansom Institute.
