Case: The patient is a 65-year-old male with long history of type 2 Diabetes and obesity. He does not smoke. He had knee surgery 10 years ago but otherwise has had no other major medical problem. Over the years he has tried low glycemic diet and Aerobic exercise program to reduce his weight but has not been very successful. His granddaughter just started high school and he wants to see her graduate and go on college. He understands that his diabetes puts him at high risk for heart disease and is frustrated that he cannot lose the necessary weight. His neighbour told him about a colleague at work who had his stomach stapled (Gastric or Bariatric surgery) and as a result not only lost over 100 lbs. but also “cured” his diabetes. In addition, one family member told him about intermittent fasting and Keto diet while other relative is regularly doing High-intensity interval training (HIIT). He wants to know which among those treatments or interventions would be the best option for him.

Question#3: What type & level of EBP Design will be the BEST for this case? State the rationale. (2 Marks) Rationale: _____________________________________________________________________
- 4.
Specify one website or data base to evaluate your proposed PICO question for the development/adoption of a clinical practice guidelines. (1 Mark)
- 5.
List two criteria that you should keep in mind when evaluating a clinical practice guideline. (2 Marks)
- 6.
Enumerate two EBP models developed nurses. (2 Marks)
- 7.
Is EBP integrated other factors in making clinical decisions true or false?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The correct answer is true. EBP, or evidence-based practice, involves integrating various factors, such as clinical expertise, patient preferences, and the best available evidence, in making clinical decisions. This approach ensures that healthcare decisions are based on the most up-to-date and relevant evidence, while also considering individual patient needs and preferences. By incorporating multiple factors, EBP promotes the delivery of high-quality and personalized care.Rate this question:

Is EBP involves efforts to institutionalize evidence to fit a specific patient’s needs & situations true or false?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The statement is false because evidence-based practice (EBP) involves using the best available evidence to inform decisions about patient care, rather than trying to fit evidence to a specific patient's needs and situations. EBP emphasizes the integration of clinical expertise, patient values and preferences, and the best available evidence to guide clinical decision-making. It does not involve tailoring evidence to fit a specific patient, but rather using evidence to inform decisions that are most likely to benefit the patient population as a whole.Rate this question:

Is RU is focused on translating research findings into real world application true or false?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
RU is focused on translating research findings into real-world applications. This means that they prioritize taking the knowledge and discoveries gained through research and applying them to practical solutions that can benefit society. By doing so, RU aims to make a tangible impact and ensure that their research has real-world relevance and usefulness.Rate this question:

Is RU is based from previous evidence and evolve to a research innovation true or false?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The statement "RU is based from previous evidence and evolve to a research innovation" is false. This means that RU does not rely on previous evidence and does not lead to research innovation.Rate this question:

Is EBP begins with emergence of new knowledge true or false?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The correct answer is False. Evidence-based practice (EBP) does not begin with the emergence of new knowledge. Instead, it involves integrating the best available evidence from research studies with clinical expertise and patient values to make informed decisions about patient care. EBP involves a continuous process of critically appraising and applying existing knowledge to improve patient outcomes, rather than relying solely on new knowledge.Rate this question:
