In increasing numbers, nurses as members of intradisciplinary and transdisciplinary teams are implementing evidence-based practice (EBP) changes. These variations result in demonstrated improvement in outcomes for the patient and family, staff, organization, and community. Many of these EBP activities remain an untapped resource; however, they have potential for improving practice beyond a single facility or local area. Descriptions of EBP projects that dofind their way into the literature have yet to include detail on all of the steps of the EBP process from problem identification through critical appraisal and synthesis of relevant literature to development, implementation, and evaluation of the practice change. In this article, the authors aim to provide guidance to clinicians on how to document an EBP project. Guidelines addressed in the article are also included as criteria for the Evidence-Based Practice Award, as established by the Foundation of New York State Nurses Center for Nursing Research Planning Committee.

Background: Assessing self-efficacy in evidence-based practice (EBP) is crucial for identifying training needs, evaluating the effectiveness of educational programs, and assessing the overall application confidence of EBP in healthcare professions, including occupational therapy (OT). Thus, the objectives of this study were to cross-culturally adapt the Evidence-Based Practice Confidence Scale (EPIC) for Spanish-speaking OT students and professionals and to evaluate its internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity.
Methods: A professional translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the EPIC was developed, including a pilot study that resulted in the EPIC Spanish version.

Background: Implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) in child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) is a priority to improve service delivery and outcomes. Clinicians' EBP attitudes are likely to play a crucial role in implementation but are poorly understood. This study aimed to assess variation in EBP attitudes in a large national sample of CAMHS clinicians in Sweden, and to compare these findings to findings from the United States of America (USA).

Background: Evidence-based practices (EBPs) are instrumental in improving patient outcomes and ensuring high-quality nursing care, yet their implementation often encounters substantial barriers. The Iowa Implementation for Sustainability Framework and the Precision Implementation Approach© offer systematic strategies for overcoming barriers and enhancing EBP implementation and sustainability in health care settings.
Aim: This project aimed to use the Iowa Implementation for Sustainability Framework and the Precision Implementation Approach© to support the use of an evidence-based maternal depression intervention within Iowa's Title V Maternal Health Program that serves mothers of young children living in poverty.
