1. Evidence-based practice is a problem-solving approach to making decisions about ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
patientcare that is grounded in:
ff f ff ff ff ff
a. the latest information found in textbooks.
ff ff ff ff ff
b. systematically conducted research studies. ff ff ff
c. tradition in clinical practice. ff ff ff
d. quality improvement and risk-management data. ff ff ff ff
ANS: B f f
The best evidence comes from well-designed, systematically conducted research studies
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
described in scientific journals. Portions of a textbook often become outdated by the time
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
it is published. Many health care settings do not have a process to help staff adopt new
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
evidence in practice, and nurses in practice settings lack easy access to risk-management
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
data, relying instead on tradition or convenience. Some sources of evidence do not
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
originatefrom research. These include quality improvement and risk-management data;
ff f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
infection control data; retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and clinicians‘ expertise.
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
Although non–research-based evidence is often very valuable, it is important that you
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
learn to rely more on research-based evidence.

2. When evidence-based practice is used, patient care will be:
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
a. standardized for all. ff ff
b. unhampered by patient culture. ff ff ff
c. variable according to the situation. ff ff ff ff
d. safe from the hazards of critical thinking.ff ff ff ff ff ff
ANS: C f f
Using your clinical expertise and considering patients‘ cultures, values, and preferences
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
ensures that you will apply available evidence in practice ethically and appropriately.
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
Evenwhen you use the best evidence available, application and outcomes will differ; as a
ff f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
nurse,you will develop critical thinking skills to determine whether evidence is relevant
ff f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
and appropriate.

4. A well-developed PICOT question helps the nurse:
ff ff ff ff ff ff
a. search for evidence. ff ff
b. include all five elements of the sequence. ff ff ff ff ff ff
c. find as many articles as possible in a literature search.
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
d. accept standard clinical routines. ff ff ff
ANS: A f f
The more focused a question that you ask is, the easier it is to search for evidence in the
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
scientific literature. A well-designed PICOT question does not have to include all five
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
elements, nor does it have to follow the PICOT sequence. Do not be satisfied with clinical
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
routines. Always question and use critical thinking to consider better ways to provide
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
patientcare.
