What are the 3 things that contribute to Evidence Informed Practice (EPI)?
1) Clinical expertise
2) Current best evidence from research
3) Patient values and preferences
What is the evidence cycle of EIP?
Patient problem>ask>acquire>appraise>apply>action
What is the best type of bias/evident?
Meta-analyses of randomized control trials
Define primary and secondary research.
Primary - authors conducted the study and contains a methods section

Secondary research - authors compiled information from other papers (review article)
What are the four categories of research methods?
• Selection bias: sample selection, population, size, randomized, inclusion/exclusion criteria, control, intervention, blinding

• Performance bias: Groups treated the same?

• Attrition bias: Everyone accounted for?

• Detection bias: Outcomes?
How do you calculate Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR)?
(% Risk in control) - (% Risk in treatment)

*Use %
How do you calculate and interpret Relative Risk Reduction (RRR)?
(difference in event rates) / (control event rate)

*Use %

The treatment decreased or increased the event rate by %
How do you calculate and interpret Relative Risk (RR)?
Probability = chances for/total chances

RR = (probability of control) / (probability of treatment)

• RR > 1.00 = increase risk, x times more likely to ...
• (RR - 1.00)(100) = % increase

RR = 1.00 = no difference

•RR < 1.00 = decrease risk, x times less likely to ...
• (1.00 - RR) (100) = % decrease
How do you calculate and interpret Odds Ratio (OR)?
• odds = chances for/chances against

• OR = (odds in event/odds in treatment)


• odds of event is # times more than the treatment
How do you calculate Number Needed to Treat (NNT)?
1/ARR (in decimal form not %) = # of people need to be treated in order for one to benefit
If the RR is 7.1, what is the RRR?
• If the RR is 7.1 then the RRR is 610%
• 7.1 > 1, therefore:
• 7.1 - 1 = 6.1 (100) = 610% increase
If the RRR is 25%, what is the RR?
RR =
• 25% = .25
• 1 - .25 = .75
