, chapter 01: using evidence in nursing practice
multiple choice
1. evidence-based practice is a problem-solving approach to making
decisions about patient care that is grounded in:
a. the latest information found in textbooks.
b. systematically conducted research studies.
c. tradition in clinical practice.
d. quality improvement and risk-management data.
ans: b
the best evidence comes from well-designed, systematically conducted
research studies described in scientific journals. portions of a
textbook often become outdated by the time it is published. many
health care settings do not have a process to help staff adopt new
evidence in practice, and nurses in practice settings lack easy access
to risk-management data, relying instead on tradition or convenience.
some sources of evidence do not originate from research. these
include quality improvement and risk-management data; infection
control data; retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and
clinicians‘ expertise. although
non–research-based evidence is often very valuable, it is important
that you learn to rely more on research-based evidence.

2. when evidence-based practice is used, patient care will be:
a. standardized for all.
b. unhampered by patient culture.
c. variable according to the situation.
d. safe from the hazards of critical thinking.
ans: c
using your clinical expertise and considering patients‘ cultures,
values, and preferences ensures that you will apply available
evidence in practice ethically and appropriately. even when you
use the best evidence available, application and outcomes will
differ; as a nurse, you will develop critical thinking skills to
determine whether evidence is relevant and appropriate.
