Evidence-Based Practice Grove: Understanding Nursing Research, 7th Edition




MULTIPLE CHOICE


1. Which statement best describes evidence-based practice (EBP)?
a. A combination of best research evidence, clinical expertise, and the needs
and values of patients
b. A determination of the factors necessary to control patient responses to care
and delivery of care
c. The development of population care guidelines applicable to all patients
d. The utilization of quantitative and qualitative studies to enhance patient
outcomes
ANS: A
Evidence-based practice evolves from the integration of the best research
evidence with clinical expertise and patient needs and values. Studies that
attempt to find determinants of patient outcomes are generally experimental or
quasi-experimental. They may be used to guide EBP but do not completely
define it. EBP is a combination of guidelines and specific patient needs and
values. Quantitative and qualitative studies applied to the evaluation of patient
outcomes are part of EBP but do not completely define EBP.
