7.Which statement reflects the meaning of evidence-
informed practice (EIP)?
a. Best practice techniques to treat patients. Taking note
solely from Registered Nurses Association of Ontario
(RNAO)
b. Clinician experience and expertise to guide practice.
Sometimes reflecting on the patient perspective
c. Life-long problem-solving approach to clinical decision
making using best available evidence
d. The patient's own preferences are not important in EIP
ANSWER: c
EIP is more than the use of best practice techniques to
treat patients; it can be defined as a paradigm and
lifelong problem-solving approach to clinical decision
making that involves the conscientious use of the best
available evidence (including a systematic search for and
critical appraisal of the most relevant evidence to answer
a clinical question) with one's own clinical expertise and
patient values and preferences to improve outcomes for
individuals, groups, communities, and systems. EIP is
more than simply using the best practice techniques to
treat patients, and questioning tradition is important
when no compelling and supportive research evidence
exists.
