Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the systematic approach of incorporating the most reliable research evidence with the expertise of healthcare professionals and the individualised values and circumstances of the patient (1). Evidence-based practice has been incorporated throughout the infographic by specifically looking at evidence-based medicine, as the study chosen for the infographic was obesity and using intensive behavioural therapy (IBT) to combat obesity. Evidence-based medicine refers to the use of unique methods to find reliable evidence of the benefits of a medical intervention. Thus, evidence such as successive clinical trials and reasons for implementation were added to the infographic to persuade practitioners and researchers.

In this case, intensive behavioural therapy demonstrates high success rates across the data, which was displayed on the infographic to motivate practitioners and researchers to undertake evidence-based practice. Alongside guidance on what evidence-based practice is and a ‘how to guide’ for practitioners for a clear view of how to conduct evidence-based practice. The infographic is curated to target and motivate practitioners and researchers to undertake evidence-based practice, to apply more valid and reliable therapies and treatments for individualised patient care, in this case, implementing intensive behavioural therapy for weight loss in obesity, by informing practitioners and researchers what evidence-based practice is and validating why the type of practice, intensive behavioural therapy, should be implemented through valid data from a reliable study, providing the successes of the practice, and mentioning a how-to guide for practitioners to understand how effective the practice is and why they should implement the
