MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Evidence-based practice is a problem-solving approach to making decisions about patient
care that is grounded in:
, 3|Page
a. the latest information found in textbooks.
b. systematically conducted research studies.
c. tradition in clinical practice.
d. quality improvement and risk-management data.
ANSWER: 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 Portions of a textbook often become outdated by the time it is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.
DIF: CognitiveLevel: Comprehension OBJ: Discuss the benefits of evidence-based
practice. TOP: Evidence-Based Practice KEY: Nursing Process Step: Assessment
MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment (management of care)
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.
ANSWER: 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.
