Chapter 1. Discovering the World of Nursing Research
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. 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.
ANS: A
Feedback
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.
