Evidence-based practice is the use of the current best evidence in making
patient care decisions. It applies to all types of health care professionals.
Currently there is no method that can ensure that all patients receive holistic
care, that all errors can be prevented, or that a guarantee exists that care
given is based on research.

c. How long can an IV catheter remain in place in a patient with obesity?
d. What measures can the nurse take to reduce the rising incidence of
urinary tractinfections on the older adult care unit?
ANS: D
Evidence-based practice (EBP) questions tend to arise from two sources:
recurrent problemsor new knowledge. In the correct option, the increase in
urinary tract infections 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 area or to a group of specific patients
in an area or relating to an observed trend.
