Evidence Based Practice

Introduction

Evidence-based practice can be defined as the conscious application, explicit and judicious use of the best scientific evidence available regarding health care knowledge to take decisions about patient care, taking into account their preferences and values, and incorporating professional expertise in this decision-making. It is therefore a secondary research on original studies and quantitative qualitative quality, relevant and useful to our discipline that can come from other knowledge areas as psychology, anthropology or sociology. This definition has been enriched and redefined by different disciplinary movements and styles of practice, and emphasizes that all agree in recognizing the role that are integrated research with clinical experience, the care of patients and environmental characteristics in making the best decisions for the care provided to people (Bliss, 1999, 23).

In this paper Evidence Based Practice is discussed generically for all health-related disciplines that have adapted their practice to knowledge generated by scientific research quality, incorporating the experience, the demands and values ??of patients / users and resources. As a result of Thus, decisions to be taken by professionals to choose the best care for your patient Specifically, to be supported in these elements, leading to less variability in practice clinical work with evidence-based practice is part of the culture of quality health care we provide to our patients.

Evidence Based Practices

Evidence-based practice joined evidence-based medicine with the introduction of psychiatric journals in 1998. The ideas of evidence-based practice are old, but its assumptions are sound, the reservations are based on how its tenants are promoted. There is only one evidence accepted about treatment which is derived from randomized controlled trails. In evidence-based practice, the role of therapist as a doctor is being undermined, and the social aspects and psychological effects of medicine are neglected by EDP (Galvez, 2003, 50).

Claim

To exhibit Evidence-based practice is not new, psychological aspects and sources of evidence are limited.

Support

The introduction of evidence-based practice gives a definite impression, that it is a development of up to date scientific facts about the base patient treatment. Hard evidence-based on the criteria of evidence-based practice has been there for many years, and since world war, psychiatrists acted on several key RCTs findings. One of these theories was based on the insulin therapy (Black, D. 1998). Insulin therapy coma which became a choice for schizophrenia during the 1933 in Vienna, the evidence from it was never convincing. After RCT, it proved that there were no tangible benefits over barbiturates for inducing coma and it was quickly abandoned. Psychiatrists never acted on these results and trials. Their broad conclusions only provided the preliminary base for the modern treatment of acute schizophrenia and depressive illness (Galvez, 2000, 36).

Warrants

Evidence-based practice is described as a reliable and thorough use of best evidence and care for individual patients and they speak the need to balance the expertise of clinical procedure with evidence that neither alone is sufficient.

Limitations of the evidence

Evidence-based practice is acceptable on which treatments are based essentially and derived from Meta analyses or ...
