What is Evidence-based practice (EBP)?
Evidence-based practice (EBP) is "...the integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values".
Sackett, David L. BMJ 1996;312:71-72 (13 January)
EBP ensures the use of current best available evidence to aid in decision making about the care of individual patients to provide better outcomes for patients.
