Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3

Answer to Question 2

D
The features of evidence-based practice include: it is interdisciplinary; the development of clinical practice is based on the evidence synthesis of the topic; clinical practice guidelines are important in repackaging the evidence for use by the point-of-care clinician; individual provider as well as organizational factors guide the integration and rate of evidence-based practice adoption of new practices; and evaluation includes determining the effectiveness and efficiency of patient outcomes and economy of the services.
