Evidence-based practice evolves from the integration of the best research evidence with
n n n n n n n n n n n
clinical expertise and patient needs and values. Studies that attempt to find determinants
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
ofpatient outcomes are generally experimental or quasi-experimental. They may be used to
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
guide EBP but do not completely define it. EBP is a combination of guidelines and
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
specificpatient needs and values. Quantitative and qualitative studies applied to the
n n n n n n n n n n n n
evaluation of patient outcomes are part of EBP but do not completely define EBP.

Through prediction, the probability of a specific outcome can be estimated in a given
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
situation. By knowing the percentage of parents of obese adults who were obese, the
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
probability of predicting this may be calculated. Control indicates the ability to use a
