Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

Internal evidence is derived from quality improvement and outcomes evaluations. External evidence comes from well-designed research studies. The issue of interest and the patient population are used to design the clinical question.

Correct Answer: 2

External evidence comes from well-designed research studies. Textbooks, standardized care plans, and patient teaching materials are not sources for external evidence.
