Briggs Institute EBP Resources on OVID is a database of over 5,000 full text documents, including
Best Practices and Systematic Reviews. These resources can be used to
illustrate the 7 Steps of Evidence Based Practice Research to
students. JBI has even developed a Faculty User Guide to assist you in
assigning research to your students, so they can learn the fundamentals
of research and how evidence guides decision making
in practice.

The database provides access to tools for implementing evidence based practice, such as JBI TAP (for small–scale qualitative studies execution), JBI PACES (for clinical audits and change practice), etc. More information here.
The database also contains the 6 document types listed below. The database is updated multiple times monthly with any new research
that is developed by JBI.
·
Best Practice Information Sheet (BPIS)
are short summaries based on the results and recommendations of
systematic reviews. BPIS are easily disseminated and provide busy health
professionals access to key issues and recommendations that have been
collected from a large volume of material.
·
Best Practice Technical Reports are provided
as a complementary publication to document all aspects of the development of Best Practice Information Sheets.
·
Consumer Information Sheets (CIS)
are standardized summaries on a wide range of health care interventions
and activities targeted at consumers of health care i.e.
patients/residents/clients, relatives, and carers. Each Consumer
Information Sheet is based on the best available international
evidence and each year, every existing entry is updated and new entries
are added in response to requests from members and subscribers.
·
Evidence-Based Recommended Practice (EBRP)
are interventions or procedures that describe and/or recommended
certain practices on selected clinical topics. Recommended Practices are
based on the best available evidence and each practice consists of an
equipment list, a recommended practice, occupational
health and safety provisions, and an adjoining evidence summary where
evidence is available.
·
Evidence Summaries (ES)
are short abstracts that summarize existing international evidence on
common health care interventions and activities. Evidence summaries are
based on structured searches of the literature and selected
evidence-based health care databases.
·
Systematic Reviews (and protocols) (SR)
are an analysis of all of the available literature (that is, evidence)
and involves developing a question; establishing inclusion criteria;
developing a strategy to comprehensively search for the evidence;
appraising the quality of each paper; excluding papers
of poor quality; extracting the findings of included papers; and
synthesizing the findings of included papers. PDF format only.
