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
A is the Correct Answer
• 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.
