Evidence-based medicine is defined as best practices or the application of the results from the best research-based studies in clinical care in order to obtain the best results. The Heisenberg Principle is defined as the difficulty involved in explaining an existing phenomenon and predicting future phenomena when the domain being studied is always changing. A minimal data set is the state-approved resident assessment instrument, which contains a minimum set of data elements with uniform definitions and categories concerning the cost and quality of nursing care.
