Evidence-based practice has been considered as critical element to improve quality of health services and achieving excellence in patient care. The implementation of Evidence-based practice in clinical environments has been challenging. One of the most important barriers to implement Evidence-based practice is knowledge deficit.

“…2 Evidence-based practice (EBP) plays an integral role in high-quality healthcare by promoting a problemsolving approach that emphasises implementation of the current best available research within a clinical context, helping healthcare professionals to remain up-to-date and make better healthcare decisions. [3][4][5][6][7] The National Academy of Medicine in the USA recognises EBP as an essential skill for healthcare providers in the 21 st century. 8 Several studies have also indicated that EBP improves the quality and safety of patient care.…”

Objectives:The successful implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) can lead to appropriate and effective midwifery care during pregnancy, childbirth and in the postnatal period. However, levels of knowledge and confidence in one's ability to apply EBP are related to its effective implementation. This study aimed to investigate levels of knowledge, practice of and self-efficacy towards the use of EBP among midwives in East Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional study took place between January and February 2016 and involved 98 midwives employed at two hospitals and all four urban health care centres in Torbat-e Heydariyeh, Iran. Two subscales of the Evidence-Based Practice Questionnaire were used to assess participants' knowledge and practice of EBP, respectively, while a modified version of a previously described scale was used to determine self-efficacy. Results: A total of 76 midwives participated in the study (response rate: 77.6%). Mean knowledge, practice and self-efficacy scores were 4.48 ± 0.94, 3.53 ± 0.68 and 2.80 ± 0.81, respectively. Significant relationships were found between mean selfefficacy, practice and knowledge scores and proficiency in English language (P = 0.001 each) and statistical methods (P <0.050 each). Additionally, significant relationships were found between knowledge and practice of EBP and proficiency in the use of databases (P <0.050 each). Knowledge and self-efficacy scores were significantly correlated with practice (P = 0.001 each). Conclusion: These findings demonstrate a need for improvement in the self-efficacy, practice and knowledge of EBP among midwives in East Iran. Interventions that promote these factors may help increase the use of EBP in this population.

“…The majority of the study respondents demonstrated positive attitudes toward EBP, consistent with findings from previous research. 8,[10][11][12] However, the findings suggest that there are a number of barriers that limit the implementation of EBP in Nepal. The greatest barrier identified was the lack of adequate time and workload release, similar to findings reported from previous studies.…”

“…The greatest barrier identified was the lack of adequate time and workload release, similar to findings reported from previous studies. 7,9,10,[12][13][14][15][16] Another barrier identified by 52.9% of the respondents was the lack of sufficient resources, which was also identified by Majid in Singapur and by Chemjong in her study of Nepalese nurses. 7,9 Respondents ranked all seven potential motivators that were listed on the survey as important for promoting EBP.…”

BackgroundAs the evidence based practice (EBP) movement expands, there is a need for health leaders and educators in each country to assess the extent to which health professional students and practitioners are prepared to locate, evaluate, and apply evidence to guide their practice. ObjectiveThe study objective was to explore nurses' and nursing students' perceptions and attitudes towards EBP. MethodThis was a descriptive cross-sectional survey administered to all 273 nurses and nursing students from Nepal who attended an EBP conference. The survey instrument that was used by Majid in Singapore was adapted for use in this study with permission from the author. ResultIn total, 121 nurses participated in the study. The majority (93%) of respondents reported that they had no previous training in EBP. The respondents' perceptions of their EBP knowledge and skills were variable, but most of them demonstrated positive attitudes toward EBP. Respondents identified a number of barriers that limit the implementation of EBP in Nepal. The greatest barriers were lack of time and resources, difficulty understanding research articles and translating the findings to practice, and limited autonomy to change practice based on evidence. ConclusionAlthough respondents had positive attitudes towards EBP, their knowledge and skills were limited and barriers to implementation existed. Nursing faculty can use the findings to guide implementation of EBP into curricula, and nursing administrators and clinicians can use the findings to guide practice to promote EBP.
