DEFINITION:
Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a systematic approach to decision-making that integrates the best available research evidence, clinical expertise, and patient values and preferences to optimize outcomes in health care, rehabilitation, and related fields. EBP aims to apply scientific knowledge in a practical, individualized manner, improving the quality of care and resource allocation.
KEY COMPONENTS
- Best Available Evidence – High-quality, relevant research findings, often drawn from peer-reviewed studies, systematic reviews, or clinical guidelines.
- Clinical Expertise – The skills and experience of practitioners, including their ability to interpret research evidence and apply it to specific patient contexts.
- Patient Values and Preferences – Consideration of individual goals, cultural backgrounds, expectations, and personal choices.
SEMANTIC AND CONTEMPORARY USE:
The terms "evidence-based medicine" and “evidence-based practice” are often used interchangeably, although the latter is more widely used by professionals who are not physicians. Sometimes “evidence-informed practice” is used, with the latter placing greater emphasis on blending evidence with contextual knowledge and professional reasoning.
