The 'evidence-based practice inventory': reliability and validity was demonstrated for a novel instrument to identify barriers and facilitators for Evidence Based Practice in health care

摘要

Objectives: To design and validate a practical questionnaire for clinicians, to identify barriers and facilitators for evidence-based practice (EBP), that is, the use of research evidence in patient care. The inventory is ultimately intended for departments to assess local conditions for EBP, to aim and evaluate efforts at improving or maximizing EBP.
