TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Understanding and Respecting Patient Values and Circumstances: Introduction A1 - Hack, Laurita M. A1 - Gwyer, Jan Y1 - 2013 N1 - T2 - Evidence into Practice: Integrating Judgment, Values, and Research AB - The second element of evidence based practice is fully respecting and integrating our patients' values and circumstances into our collaborative decision making. We bring our expertise as clinicians (Section I) and our knowledge and appraisal of the available evidence (Section III) to working with our patients to make these clinical decisions. Patients and their families bring their own preferences and choices. These preferences and choices are based on cultural norms, personal attitudes and beliefs, and prior knowledge (patient values); and on their own situations related to the location of care and the resources available and needed to provide care (patient circumstances). This element of evidence based practice is often underrepresented in the literature. We regard it as critically important in making evidence based practice all that it can and should be.
