Evidence-based Practices (EVB)

Instructions

What are some of the models and frameworks of EBP currently in use? How does the strength of the evidence determine translation into practice? Why is it important to integrate both evidence-based practice and patient and family preferences? What is the nurse’s responsibility when EBP and patient and family practice do not match?

Answer preview

Some of the models of evidence-based practices (EVB) currently in use include Stetler Model, IOWA model of evidence-based practice, Ottowa Model of Research Use, Joanna Briggs Institute model, and Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through Close Collaboration (ARCC) model (Titler, 2008). Some of the frameworks of EVB currently in use include Knowledge to Action framework, Dobbins’ dissemination and use of research evidence for policy and practice framework, Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS). In EVB, strength of evidence determines the translation of evidence into practice by assessing the authentic status of the processes used into arriving into EVB conclusions.
