The document outlines the five steps of evidence-based practice (EBP): 1) Formulate an answerable clinical question based on a patient encounter. 2) Find and select the best available research evidence relevant to the question. 3) Critically appraise the evidence for validity and applicability. 4) Integrate the evidence with clinical expertise and patient values and preferences. 5) Evaluate the outcomes of applying the evidence to practice and determine if it should continue being used.
