Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 8   EBP 1052 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Built on a Synthesis

Captions available

The idea

A guideline incorporates a synthesis of the best evidence about recommendations for care, responding to specific questions.

In practice

Recommendations drawn from systematic reviews rather than from a panel's opinion.

Where people slip

A guideline is downstream of everything in Units 03 to 07. Its quality is limited by the evidence and the synthesis beneath it.
