ANS: B xt
The best evidence comes from well-
xt xt xt xt xt
designed, systematically conducted research studies described in scientific journals. Portions of
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
a textbook often become outdated by the time it is published. Many health care settings do not
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
have a process to help staff adopt new evidence in practice, and nurses in practice settings lack
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
easy access to risk- xt xt xt
management data, relying instead on tradition or convenience. Some sources of evidence do not
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
originate from research. These include quality improvement and risk-
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
management data; infection control data; retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and clinicia
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt
ns‘ expertise. Although

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