Introduction:
According to the Academy for Medical-Surgical Nurses, the evidence-based practice
(EBP) is a beneficial technique for effective patient care with a positive approach. Nurses are
usually classifies under two major categories including Registered nurses (RN) with a degree
of nursing practice and Enrolled nurse (EN) with a certificate or diploma of nursing practice.
Nurses falling under RN or BSN take up the evidence-based practice approach for effective
patient care (Arora, Hashmi & Thokchom, 2019). Evidence based practice is considered as an
amalgamation of significant research confirmation with best clinical proficiency and patient
standards. This approach will help nurses to improve the nursing practice for effective
outcome (Hills et al., 2019). The three major pillars of EBP consists of three different factors,
which are essential to carry out this approach namely Clinical expertise, patient values and
significant research collectively termed as “Pillars of Evidence-based practice”. Using the
approach of EBP, an Evidence-based nursing method is set-up and used (Kaiser, Cmar &
Anderson, 2019). This will allow the nurses to stay updated and advance in their respective
field to offer best effective care to the patient such as evidence literacy proficiency, which
will assist the nurses to practice information in more effective and efficient way in order to
develop their individual conclusions. High quality of care is provided to the patient using
Evidence-based practice hence; allowing the nurses to take an independent decision regarding
effective patient care decisions centred on the research of evidence based practices and need
of the patient. In this research work, an insight will be provided on the factors that impede or
hinder the application of evidence-based research to nursing practice (Callahan & Nichols,
2019). Different set of factors or issues will be highlighted, which will impede the use of EBP
in nursing.
