Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 8   EBP 1091 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Captions available

The idea

Appraisal asks whether the guideline states the level at which it is meant to apply — national, regional or local.

In practice

A guideline stating the health system it was written for.

Where people slip

A national guideline applied locally without adaptation carries assumptions about resources that may not hold in the setting adopting it.
