CCv CCv C

a. Research utilization is a process of evaluating multiple studies for the
CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv
mostgeneralizable findings; EBP is use of the most recent study on

a topic. CCv CCv
, b. Research utilization involves changing practice based on findings of a
CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv
singleresearch study; EBP is the syntheses of findings from multiple
CCv C

studies to incorporate with practitioner skills and client preference
CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv CCv
to determine best care.
