a. A combination of best research evidence, clinical expertise, and the needs an

ANS: v g A
Evidence-
based practice evolves from the integration of the best research evidence with clinical expe
vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg


rtise and patient needs and values. Studies that attempt to find determinants of patient outc
vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg


omes are generally experimental or quasi-
vg vg vg vg vg


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


mbination of guidelines and specific patient needs and values. Quantitative and qualitative
vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg


studies applied to the evaluation of patient outcomes are part of EBP but do not completel
vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg vg


y define EBP.
