Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 3 EBP 0323 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Textbooks Answer Background Questions
Captions available
The idea
A textbook supplies background knowledge and context. For a foreground question its information may be incomplete or out of date.
In practice
Reading a chapter to understand a condition before framing a PICOT question about it.
Where people slip
A recent textbook is still slower than the literature. Using one to answer a foreground question answers it as of the year it was written.
