• Which . 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. .c.The .development .of .population .care
.guidelines .applicable .to .all .patients.
d.The .utilization .of .quantitative .and .qualitative .studies .to .enhance .patient .outcomes.

AEvidence-based .practice .evolves .from .the .integration .of .the .best .research
.evidence .with .clinical .expertise .and .patient .needs .and .values.
BStudies .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.
CEBP .is .a .combination .of .guidelines .and .specific .patient .needs .and
.values. .DQuantitative .and .qualitative .studies .applied .to .the .evaluation
.of .patient .outcomes .are .part .of .EBP .but .do .not .completely .define
.EBP.
