1. Evidence-based practice is a problem- x x x x

x x x x x x x x x x
a. the latest information found in textbooks.

b. systematically conducted research studies. x x x
c. tradition in clinical practice. x x x
d. quality improvement and risk-management data. x x x x
ANS: B x
The best evidence comes from well-
x x x x x
designed, systematically conducted research studies described in scientific journals. Portions of a
x x x x x x x x x x x x
textbook often become outdated by the time it is published. Many health care settings do not have a
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
xprocess to help staff adopt new evidence in practice, and nurses in practice settings lack easy acces
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
s to risk-
x x
management data, relying instead on tradition or convenience. Some sources of evidence do not or
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
iginate from research. These include quality improvement and risk-
x x x x x x x x
management data; infection control data; retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and clinicians
x x x x x x x x x x x

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

x x x x x x x x
a. standardized for all. x x
b. unhampered by PATIENT culture. x x x

d. safe from the hazards of critical thinking.x x x x x x
ANS: C x
Using your clinical expertise and considering PATIENTs‘ cultures, values, and preferences
x x x x x x x x x x x
ensures that you will apply available evidence in practice ethically and appropriately. Even
x x x x x x x x x x x x
when you use the best evidence available, application and outcomes will differ; as a nurse,y

The more focused a question that you ask is, the easier it is to search for evidence in the scientific
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

designed PICOT question does not have to include all five elements, nor does it have to follow th
