Occupational therapy educational programs are required to incorporate EBP into their curriculum. A convenience sample of occupational therapy students from a private university completed a survey designed to mea...

We developed and implemented an evidence-based practice (EBP) training program to a group of physiotherapists in the Philippines. This qualitative study aimed to explore the perspectives of Filipino physiotherapists regarding EBP and the EBP training provided, and to identify strategies for EBP implementation and sustainability in the Philippines. We used a qualitative descriptive design using ...

Sackett et al. continued to describe EBP as integrating individual c...

Evidence-based practice (EBP) was systematically implemented using the implementation model by Grol et al. Barriers and facilitators for change were diagnostically analyzed. Implementation strategies were directed at the barriers. The two main implementation interventions were (a) a tailored interactive outreach training course about EBP and (b) a patient case discussion based on EBP principles...

CONTEXT Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the integration of the best research evidence with patients' values and clinical circumstances in clinical decision making. Teaching of EBP should be evaluated and guided by evidence of its own effectiveness. OBJECTIVE To appraise, summarize, and describe currently available EBP teaching evaluation instruments. DATA SOURCES AND STUDY SELECTION We sea...

The "bottom-up" model of evidence-based practice (EBP) emphasizes the principles of integrating best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values. It is derived from multidisciplinary sources, including clinical medicine, epidemiology, and adult learning theory, and has been applied to many medical disciplines, including radiology. Central to its implementation in everyday busy ...

OBJECTIVES Evidence-based practice (EBP) may help improve healthcare quality. However, not all healthcare professionals and managers use EBP in their daily practice. We systematically reviewed the literature to summarise self-reported appreciation of EBP and organisational infrastructure solutions proposed to promote EBP. DESIGN Systematic review. Two investigators independently performed the...

Implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) is a complex task. This study, conducted in an acute geriatric setting, aims to compare self-reported capability beliefs on EBP between health professionals and students, and to compare the use of EBP between health professional groups. Occupational therapists, physicians, physiotherapists and registered nurses with three or more months' employmen...

Although researchers have examined barriers to implementing evidence-based practice (EBP) at the level of the individual, little is known about the effects workplaces have on speech-language pathologists' implementation of EBP. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of workplace factors on the use of EBP amongst speech-language pathologists who work with children with Autism Spectrum D...
