How Does Evidence-Based Practice Enhance Research?
Evidence-based practice (EBP) integrates clinical expertise with the best available research evidence and patient values. It enhances research capabilities by:
1. Improving Relevance: EBP ensures that research questions are relevant to current clinical practices and patient needs. 2. Guiding Clinical Decisions: Research findings grounded in EBP can directly influence clinical decision-making and improve patient outcomes. 3. Enhancing Credibility: Research based on EBP is more likely to be trusted and implemented by healthcare professionals.
