Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 5   EBP 0611 short lesson, about 20 seconds

EBP Has Its Own Language

The idea

Evidence-based practice has its own vocabulary, and understanding it is essential to communicating with patients and with colleagues.

In practice

Patient preference, values, internal evidence, external evidence, synthesis, expertise — terms that carry specific meanings.

Where people slip

A shared word used with two meanings is worse than an unfamiliar one, because nobody notices the mismatch.
