Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 8 EBP 1136 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Evaluating Uptake and Impact
Captions available
The idea
Guideline programmes use data systems to evaluate the uptake and impact of guidelines on patient, organizational and system outcomes, and so to demonstrate value to the organizations carrying them.
In practice
Uptake and outcome data collected across sites and analysed together.
Where people slip
Uptake and impact are two measurements. A guideline can be followed thoroughly and change nothing that was measured.
