Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Models

Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Models
Evidence-based practice (EBP) models can be used to achieve the goal of knowledge transformation. In particular, knowledge transformation entails the acquisition of information and its modification to suit the purpose at hand. The process of creating knowledge comprises problem analysis, setting, and solving activities. On that note, EBP facilitates the integration of existing research, patient preferences, and clinical expertise to foster effective decision-making in care. EBP models involve various phases of knowledge transformation that include identifying a clinical issue, reviewing current and relevant literature, critically appraising evidence, evaluating how to change the practice and implementation, and evaluating the outcome (Wyant, 2017). Healthcare organizations adopt EBP models that align with the context of their care and address the existing clinical problems systematically. Moreover, these models enhance knowledge transformation so that it can be applied in various settings or phases of care.
The knowledge transformed by various EBP models is relevant, useful, and accessible in improving health outcomes. EBP models offer caregivers with scientific research that prioritizes real-time and data-driven insight so that t...
