Evidence-based practice (EBP) - A core concept in achieving high -quality nursing care

In the 1980s, the phrase "evidence-based medicine" was coined to represent a process of determining the best treatment based on scientific evidence. The evidence-based practise movement emerged in England in the early 1990s. The deliberate application of the best available evidence in making decisions about a patient's care is known as evidence-based medicine (EBM) or evidence-based practise (EBP). Evidence-based practise is a concept as well as a method. The idea is founded on the ethical principle that customers have the right to get the most effective interventions available. The EBP strategy describes how we go about locating and implementing interventions.
