c. The Development Of Population Care Guidelines Applicable To All Patients.
d. The Utilization Of Quantitative And Qualitative Studies To Enhance Patient Outcomes.
Answer: A
Feedback
A Evidence-Based Practice Evolves From The Integration Of The Best RESEARCH
Evidence With Clinical Expertise And Patient Needs And Values.
B Studies 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.
C Ebp Is A Combination Of Guidelines And Specific Patient Needs And Values.
D Quantitative And Qualitative Studies Applied To The Evaluation Of Patient
Outcomes
Are Part Of Ebp But Do Not Completely Define Ebp.
