Evidence-based practice is the “integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values.” It means that when health professionals make a treatment decision with their patient, they base it on their clinical expertise, the preferences of the patient, and the best available evidence. We apply the same principles when we choose a new car, a restaurant at which to dine, or film to watch at the cinema.
