About the Textbook:
Johns Hopkins Evidence-Based Practice for Nurses and Healthcare Professionals has proven to be one of the most foundational books on EBP in nursing and healthcare. Building on the strength of previous versions, the fifth edition is fully revised with an updated Johns Hopkins Evidence-Based Practice model to better serve as a step-by-step how-to manual for EBP projects.
The revamped, simplified model features updates to the categories of evidence and appraisal tools, with an emphasis on using suitable pre-appraised evidence.
Authors Kim Bissett, Judith Ascenzi, and Madeleine Whalen present outstanding, thoroughly researched content that is based on more than two decades of the model's use, refinement in real-life settings, and feedback from nurses and other healthcare professionals around the world. These changes better support real-life EBP projects while saving time and energy.

A chapter on real-world implementation
Simplified appraisal process
Improved "Evidence Phase Decision Tree"
Emerging issues such as artificial intelligence
