MULTIPLE CHOICE l




1. Evidence-based practice is a problem-solving approach to making decisions about patient l l l l l l l l l l


care that is grounded in:
l l l l l


a. the latest information found in textbooks.
l l l l l


b. systematically conducted research studies. l l l


c. tradition in clinical practice. l l l


d. quality improvement and risk-management data. l l l l




ANS: B l l


The best evidence comes from well-designed, systematically conducted research studies
l l l l l l l l l


described in scientific journals. Portions of a textbook often become outdated by the time it is
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l


published. Many health care settings do not have a process to help staff adopt new evidence in
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l


practice, and nurses in practice settings lack easy access to risk-management data, relying
l l l l l l l l l l l l l


instead on tradition or convenience. Some sources of evidence do not originate from research.
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l


These include quality improvement and risk-management data; infection control data;
l l l l l l l l l l


retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and clinicians’ expertise. Although non–research-
l l l l l l l l l l


based evidence is often very valuable, it is important that you learn to rely more on research-
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l


based evidence. l

2. When evidence-based practice is used, patient care will be:
l l l l l l l l


a. standardized for all. l l


b. unhampered by patient culture. l l l


c. variable according to the situation. l l l l


d. safe from the hazards of critical thinking.
l l l l l l




ANS: C l l


Using your clinical expertise and considering patients’ cultures, values, and preferences
l l l l l l l l l l


ensures that you will apply available evidence in practice ethically and appropriately. Even
l l l l l l l l l l l l l


when you use the best evidence available, application and outcomes will differ; as a nurse,
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l


you will develop critical thinking skills to determine whether evidence is relevant and
l l l l l l l l l l l l l


appropriate.
