By - properly! History and definition Evidence based practice derives from a movement
that was instigated in the 1980s by a "group of medical educators at McMasters University in Ontario, Canada" (Haneline 2007, p. 3). This group made the observation that a gap
existed between the clinical practice of medicine and the huge amount of data being generated by clinical research. Basically, it was noted that clinicians were failing to incorporate new empirically-proven
information into clinical practice. Consequently, the McMasters group began efforts designed to educate practitioners concerning the "importance of integrating research evidence into
their clinical practices," that is, "how to combine "newfound knowledge with their expertise as clinicians," while also considering the "desires and preferences of the patients they care for" (Haneline 2007,
p. 3). Ultimately, this orientation towards practice became known as "evidence based medicine (EBM)" (Haneline 2007, p. 3). David Sackett, one of the principal originators of evidence based practice
(EBP), defines EBM in the following manner: "Evidence based medicine is the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients,"
