Abstract:

The importance of evidence-based practice in healthcare for improving patient outcomes is widely recognized. While nursing research primarily generates new knowledge, evidence-based nursing practice focuses on applying the best available evidence to guide care. There's a growing trend in research to effectively translate evidence into practice. It's clear that having research-based evidence alone isn't enough; it must also be successfully integrated into a supportive environment to yield meaningful results. In nursing, evidence-based practice means delivering comprehensive, high-quality care based on the latest research and knowledge rather than relying solely on traditional methods, advice from peers, or personal beliefs. Implementing evidence-based practice in nursing bridges the gap between theory and actual patient care, leading to innovative healthcare that incorporates the latest discoveries. Evidence-based practice remains a central theme throughout a nursing career, with its origins dating back to Florence Nightingale, the pioneer of modern nursing. Nightingale collected data and established a connection between unhygienic conditions and declining health, a concept that remains relevant today. Over the past century, advancements in technology and human ingenuity have led to solutions that were unimaginable just 50 years ago. Many diseases have been conquered, countless lives saved, and the pursuit of improved healthcare solutions continues. Evidence-based practice in nursing underscores the notion that medical practices should evolve continually based on an ongoing cycle of evidence, theory, and research. Changes in practice stimulate further research, and the theories arising from that research serve as evidence to drive additional improvements in practice.
