Evidence-
based practice evolves from the integration of the best research evidence with clinical expert

ise and patient needs and values. Studies that attempt to find determinants of patient outcom

es are generally experimental or quasi-

experimental. They may be used to guide EBP but do not completely define it. EBP is a com

bination of guidelines and specific patient needs and values. Quantitative and qualitative stud
