Evidence-based practice is extremely important in health care. It is not only important to know how to perform a certain skill, but why it should be done. There needs to be a standard of care and providers need to know the best way of doing things based on evidence. The article mentions that in the 20th century, many medial decisions were made on doctor assessment and preference (Brower, 2017). Many physicians were practicing dramatically different when compared with one another, which led to the realization that changes needed to be made and Evidence-based practice began to develop. Even though Evidence-based practices have been in play for a while, there is a gap between understanding and applying evidence-based

Evidence-based practice is an approach used by health care professionals to continually use current best evidence-based research to make ethical and reliable decisions regarding patient care. “Research to promote evidence-based practice is becoming more and more a part of the regular work of health care leaders” (Grand Canyon University, 2015, p. 1). However, it is important to determine the difference between solid research and flawed research that provides unreliable inferences. Evidence-based research includes focusing on a clinical question; and includes the review and incorporation of several studies to strengthen the results of the new study (Grand Canyon University, 2015). Roddy et al. and Ganz et al. articles will be assessed to determine if the recommended changes were backed by solid research that warrants changes in a hospital.

Itroduction: Evidence-based practice is an approach to medicine that uses scientific evidence to determine the best practice (Beyea & Slattery, 2006). As nurses perform their daily tasks they must continually ask themselves, “What is the evidence for this intervention?”. Nurses are well positioned to question current nursing practices and use evidence to make care more effective. In order to improve patients’ outcomes it is the responsibility of the nurse to transition evidence-based practice into the norm, through application of daily practice (Flynn Makic, Rauen, Watson & Will Poteet, 2014). Continual evaluation of current practice must be performed to ensure the use of evidence-based practice opposed to practice based upon tradition. The implementation of evidence-based practice standardizes healthcare practices and diminishes groundless variations within care. These variations lead to the production of uncertain health outcomes (Stevens, 2013).

According to Lewis, Dirksen, Heitkemper & Bucher (2014), “Evidence-based practice is a problem-solving approach to clinical decision making. It involves the use of the best available evidence in combination with clinical expertise and patient preferences and values to achieve desired patient outcomes.” Using evidence based practice in nursing is extremely important, because evidence-based practice is the result of others trying a practice one way but needing to change some of the guidelines to make the practice safer and over all better for patients.

Evidenced-based practice (EBP) originated in Canada from a new form of medical school which was launched during the 1970s at an institution called McMaster University (Hoffmann, Bennett, & Del Mar, 2010). This new medical program was uncommon in a variety of its methods. The primary variation was the abbreviated three year medical program which is very brief in comparison to other medical school framework (Hoffmann, Bennett, & Del Mar, 2010). Instructors conceded that the ideal concept of teaching medical students everything they would possibly need to know in regards to practicing medicine with in this program was an unattainable undertaking (Hoffmann, Bennett, & Del Mar, 2010). In response to this epiphany, instructors at this institution transformed their educational approach and focused on instruction that would provide students with the skills and tools they would need to effectively locate health information while practicing as healthcare professionals (Hoffmann, Bennett, & Del Mar, 2010). This scientific approach to healthcare is now known as evidence-based practice (Hoffmann, Bennett, & Del Mar, 2010). In the past, healthcare practitioners made decisions for patients based on personal and professional experience, hearsay, and lack of scientific evidence (White, 2004). An evidence-based practice links the

The authors Brady and Lewin discuss the concept of evidence- based practice and the current challenges. The authors describe evidenced- based practice (EBP) as the integration of three important components: evidence from research, clinical expertise, and patient values. They described with surprise the majority of nurses are not aware of current research findings to support their nursing practices. The authors found nurses rely on their experience, traditions, policies and procedures in their practice.

The foundation of the evidence-based practice paradigm according to Barkham & Mellor-Clark (2003), relies on efficacy research that focuses on and assesses the measurability of specific interventions. It also addresses questions about safety, and capability. The goal is to provide the best practices possible in reducing possible harm or threat to the client through practice intervention. Through evidenced based practice, potential harm can be minimized, and potential benefits maximized. According to Drisko (2011), EBP, improves clinical practice outcomes, informs treatment planning and helps to better serve our clients. It also helps identify procedures that are cost-effective resulting in the best practice and the best use of resources.

he movement toward evidenced based healthcare has necessitated change in practice approaches and a broader understanding of what constitutes evidence for physicians, nurses, allied health professionals and consumers. There is a significant amount of literature published regarding this practice change in all clinical areas. Not all literature is supportive of the use of evidence based medicine

In the world of medicine, evidence base practice has been a great strength to show how through research we can provide better quality care to our patients. Evidence base practice can be defined as “the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of the individual patient. It means integrating individual clinical expertise with the best available external clinical evidence from systematic research”("Overview - Introduction to Evidence-Based Practice - LibGuides at Duke University Medical Center", 2016).

I easily found all articles on evidence based practice through scavenging Touro Library; and through sharing my thoughts with my fellows’ and teacher’s and by exploring their estimation on evidence-based practice, I had the opportunity to diverse and express my philosophical and critical thought in positive and negative angles. I was also able to enhance my knowledge by studying many previous peer review literature on evidence based practice. I also increased my ability of reading, writing, and thinking skills which would help me to be confident to use any type of model and method to establish evidence based practice in my

I like how you link evidence based practice to critical appraisal, it brought a new way of understanding the evidence practice to me. Critical appraisal enables the researcher to identify the documents that have reliable and unbiased evidence and whose proposed action or change will lead to the desired goals. Great

“Evidence based-practice is a research-to-practice gap that exists in which some practices shown are to be effective by scientific research are seldom used on applied settings, but some commonly implemented practices are not empirically validated and may be ineffective or even harmful” (Cook et al, 2012).
