A New Perception of Evidence-Based Practice
Abstract
Three possible outcomes are expected whenever a clinical practice is conducted: correct results, representation of a random variation, or results influenced by systematic errors. Numerous factors can influence these errors; for instance, random errors might be due to play of chance, while systematic biases might be due to inadequate research or analysis (Al-Jundi, 2017). The study has depicted that biased results contribute up to 60% of the actual effect of the healthcare intervention, which could mislead healthcare decision-making. Therefore, critical appraisal is the process of being keen while examining the research evidence to determine the degree of its trustworthiness and its relevance to that particular context. Thus it is used to determine whether the clinical research evidence is free from biases and relevant to the patient.
Purpose
Evidence-based practice (EBP) integrates personal clinical expertise through the knowledge they had gained from the best available evidence from systematic research and patients' values that influence the decision-making process for their patient care (Al-Jundi, 2017). Therefore, this essay aims to provide a comprehensive and simple process for assessing the credibility of the article "Changes in nursing students' perceptions of research and evidence-based practice after completing a research course" and their contribution to clinical practice.
Methods
Besides, based on the results presented by the article, the critical appraisal is accurate as the students were enrolled in the research process to develop a foundation for developing evidence-based practice skills. Students were enrolled in their lectures and assigned discussion groups, and at the end of the session, they were given exams to test their credibility (Keib et al., 2017). Besides the assessment, a group paper and postal presentation tested students' ability to apply the objectives, skills, and knowledge while conducting their research. The course ensured that students were well equipped to face reality. Towards the end of the session, they were required to create a poster about their EBP project and...
…2017). This incorporated EBP into the curriculum since it helps improve the students' perception of the knowledge they learn and influence their attitudes toward EBP. The study was impactful to students, and after completing their studies, some attested that EBP would play a major role in their future practices. Therefore, this concept has enabled students to develop critical and analytic thinking skills. Besides, it should be incorporated in all nursing institutions because it builds students' confidence while conducting research.However, the study had some limitations because it majored more in one university, mostly female and Caucasian students. Thus, the result could be associated with some biasness since it was from a limited scope. Therefore, they need to evaluate other universities to ensure more reliable results.
In conclusion, incorporating EBP courses in the nursing curriculum positively influences students, increasing their confidence during their practice. This curriculum helped build students' confidence while conducting EBP. Furthermore, most participants agreed that they would incorporate it in their future practices…

Evidence-Based Practice There is a lot of talk about evidence-based practice in the medical community, and it may seem as though it is being overstated. However, that is definitely not the case. Evidence-based practice is very important in order to make sure healthcare outcomes are the best they can be. Any problematic outcomes can be improved through the use of scholarly inquiry and analysis. Being able to analyze issues properly and
Evidence-Based Practice: Systems Theory and Diffusion of Innovation Theories to Healthcare Delivery and Nursing Practice The ability to acquire accurate and timely information enhances nursing practice and patient outcomes. Search engines and healthcare nursing databases operate in different ways, and it is necessary for healthcare professionals to understand how to access and efficiently use both public and professional resources. Because today the public has greater access to electronic health information, healthcare

The use of participants with an already diagnosed illness facilitates the study of
Evidence-based practice is an approach that has been applied to clinical practice and nursing. Evidence-based practice started initially in medicine and went to fields like education, psychology, nursing and dentistry. It should be noted that the research is based on studies that were carried out and these studies go on to fit the scenario that is currently being dealt with. Treatments that are supported empirically are the ones that are proven
