Evidence-based practice is the use of the current best evidence in making patient care ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
decisions. It applies to all types of health care professionals. Currently there is no method

Evidence-based practice (EBP) questions tend to arise from two sources: recurrent problems ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
or new knowledge. In the correct option, the increase in urinary tract infections
ss ss ss s s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
indicates a trend or recurring problem in a specific group of patients. The other

questions are general information questions, not based on what is happening in a specific
ss s s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
area or to a group of specific patients in an area or relating to an observed trend.

ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
a. Intervention of interest ss ss

a. Randomized controlled trials ss ss
