This study aimed to compare and analyze the procedures to specify the research topic in Practice-Based Research Network (PBRN). We investigated the topic selection process in previous PBRNs, and two PBRNs—Academy of Family Physicians National Research Network and The National Dental Practice-Based Research Network—were selected. In both PBRNs, there were common procedures for collecting practitioners' opinions, and it was analyzed whether it is an interesting topic for PBRN members, and feasible and applicable in daily clinical practice. Based on the analysis of the comparison of the PBRN study selection process, we can develop our own Korean Medicine PBRN with high participation from Korean Medicine Doctors.
