The nursing process should aim to to be used with critical thinking and EBP. The patient should be consulted on their care and any decision made should take their values, beliefs and opinions into account.

Evidence Based Practice

Evidence Based Practice (EBP) is the process of making clinical decisions based upon evidence, combined with clinical experience and patient expectations. EBP is used in a variety of fields, including medicine, nursing, psychology and allied health. The process involves an assessment of evidence using a hierarchy of evidence types, with Cochrane systematic reviews commonly considered the 'gold standard' for evidence. For example, see the EBP evidence pyramid,  or the Joanna Briggs Levels of Evidence. To find evidence to base your decision upon, start by phrasing your scenario as a specific, answerable question. You can use 'PICO' for this. [P] Who or what is your patient or population group? [I] What is your intervention or indicator? [C] What is your comparison or control? [O] What outcome are you looking for? For example: A 47 year old woman comes to see you. She is overweight, concerned about her overall health, and would like to lose weight quickly. She has heard a report on the radio suggesting that resistant corn or potato starch can reduce obesity. You begin to investigate any evidence to support this. Rephrased as a specific, answerable question, using PICO: In [P] overweight, how does [I] resistant starch compared with [C] ordinary starch effect the [O] weight loss? Next, translate PICO into a search strategy which you can apply to a database to find evidence. treat each component as a separate concept. brainstorm for synonyms and alternative spellings and terminology for each concept, linking these with OR - this will broaden your search. combine your concepts with AND - this will focus your search. [P] overweight OR obese AND [I] resistant starch OR R.S. AND [C] ordinary starch AND [O] weight loss Choose the most relevant components to combine - you don't need to combine all four in a single search. For example, you could conduct a search on ([P] AND [I] AND [C]), or on ([I] AND [C]), or ([P] and [I]). Choose an appropriate EBP resource to search, select from the databases listed on the left, and conduct your search.

What does the EBP process involve?

There are a number of EBP processes which have been developed to help clinicians implement EBP in the workplace and a number of EBP websites which explain the steps involved. The most common procedure follows 6 steps: 1. Formulate a clinical question 2. Search the literature 3. Sort, read and critique the literature 4. Come to a “clinical bottom line”, in other words recommendations for day-to-day practice based only on the best available literature. 5. Implement the recommendations, documenting them, any changes you choose to make and the outcomes of your intervention. In implementing the recommendations you apply the research to your clinical setting and client. You need to include your client and the service provider in this implementation process. In other words, apply the evidence to the situation in consultation with those who it will affect. 6. Share the results of your EBP with others, ideally through writing them up. Although traditionally EBP training emphasised accessing and appraising the research evidence, recently there has been a drive to increase clinician awareness of the three components of the EBP process (research evidence, clinical data and informed client choice). This has led to the term E3BP being introduced to reflect these three essential components (Dollaghan, 2007). There are also a range of online EBP resources available to make the process easier, including already published systematic reviews, critically appraised papers (CAPs) and critically appraised topics (CATs).
