Background on EBP

Traditionally, patients have been treated based on:

What has always worked

What experts in the field say

What is published in textbooks

2

However…

“It takes an estimated average of 17 years for only 14% of new scientific discoveries to enter day-to-day clinical practice.”

= 17 years of practice

But Physicians are Still Using…

1. Textbooks

2. Humans (other people)

3. Personal libraries

4. Electronic resources

5. Internet

Barriers to OT EBP

• TIME -> Large, busy caseloads 1, 2

• ACCESS -> Many resources cost money1

• KNOWLEDGE -> Where to search1, 2 -> How to search1, 2 -> How to interpret, appraise the literature/evidence1,2

The science is intimidating! 2

Other Very REAL Barriers

Many years refining specific interventions

Incompatibility of proposed changes

Private practices may lose clients if they do not provide therapy that the clients expect

EBP ain’t child’s play!

Definition of Evidence-Based Practice

“The integration of best [current] research evidence

with our clinical expertise

and our patient’s unique values and

circumstances.”

Sackett DL, Straus SE, Richardson WS, et al. Evidence-based medicine: how to practice and teach EBM. 2d ed. Edinburgh:

Churchill Livingstone, 2000.

SO WHAT SHOULD WE BE DOING?

9

The Very First Thing to Do is…

…make a librarian your new BFF.

10

The Process: Four Steps of Evidence

Based Practice

Step 1: Ask an answerable question

Step 2: Identify the best type of research study to

answer the question.

Step 3: Determine the best resource(s) or

database(s) to search.

Step 4: Evaluate the evidence based upon the

patients’ preferences and your

clinical expertise. 11

ASK AN ANSWERABLE QUESTION

Step 1

12

P I C O Your question should include this information:

P Patient or Problem

Describe the relevant characteristics of the patient.

I Intervention

Which intervention are you considering?

C Comparison

Is there an alternative to compare with the intervention?

O Outcome

What do you hope to accomplish or affect?

13

Examples of PICO

P Patient or Problem In elderly males or females I Intervention Will Tai Chi C Comparison Yoga O Outcome Improve balance?

P Patient or Problem In patients who have suffered a stroke

I Intervention And received constraint induced movement therapy

C Comparison [none] O Outcome Are functional gains sustained after

one year?

P Patient or Problem In children with Attention Deficit Disorder

I Intervention Does dietary sugar

C Comparison [None]

O Outcome Affect function?

14

IDENTIFY THE BEST TYPE OF RESEARCH

STUDY TO ANSWER THE QUESTION

Step 2

15

• Article

• Methods section 75

Journal Status

Peer- Reviewed, Refereed or Juried?

Practice Journal?

Evaluating the Source

76

What is a “journal impact factor”?

• Impact factor is the average number of citations received per paper published in a specific journal during the two preceding years. It is used to compare different journals within a certain field.

OT Journals Ranked by SCImago

Authors Rankings Online survey of 1st or corresponding authors of peer reviewed articles in 18

Occupational Therapy journals. They were asked to rate the journals based on 11 quality indicators. Total Sample: 554 Completed Survey: 184

80

81

• Some research terms

• Some understanding of…

–Research design

– Scientific method

–Research continuum

Evaluating the Research Type

82

Terms you need to know

• Case studies & case series: unique clinical observations/ treatments

• Cross-sectional studies: snap shot descriptive

• Case-control studies: comparing characteristics of people who have a diagnosis to those who don’t

(aka Jargon)

83

• Prospective cohort studies: follow same group over time

• Outcomes studies: results following an intervention

• Randomized controlled trials: controlled experiments

• Systematic reviews & meta-analyses: summative analyses of existing research

84

Even more jargon... From the Methods Section

• Parallel group comparison: each group gets a different intervention

• Paired (or matched) comparison: each group member is matched to someone specific in the other group

• Within subject design: looks at changes made within each subject following the tx

85

• Single blind: Subjects are blinded

• Double blind: Subjects + Investigators

• Crossover: each subject gets the intervention + the control conditions

• Factorial design: effect of 2 or more variables on the outcome

86

Revisiting the Hierarchy

87

AOTA’s Evidence-Based Literature Review

Project Levels of Evidence

I. SR; MA; RCT

II. 2-group non-randomized

III. 1-group non-randomized

IV. Single-subject; descriptive; case series; case report

V. Editorials, Expert Opinion

Gutman, S. A. (2008). State of the journal. American Journal of Occupational

Therapy, 62(6), 619-22

…if question is

answered by an

intervention study

88

But, what about the rest of our clinical questions?

• Basic Research

How will my client’s cultural beliefs affect willingness to follow through on the home activities I recommend?

• Instrument

Can I use the LOTCA to assess cognitive functioning for a child with autism?

• Efficacy What is the best way to give a

home exercise program for a child who has two homes/joint custody and attends an afterschool care program?

Real Life Clinical Questions Aren’t as Simple as “Is intervention X better than intervention Y for client Z?…”

89

Stages of Scientific Method in Clinical Research

1. Observation & description

2. Hypothesis explaining clinical implications

3. Hypothesis to predict outcomes

4. Clinical experiment

5. Summaries of clinical research

90

Reading the Article

• Identify the research design

• Where the design fits in the Hierarchy or the Continuum of research

• Research type consumed

• How research can be incorporated into practice

• Understand meaning of results

92

Evaluating the Article

1. What specific clinical question did it address? – Why was study done? What clinical questions?

2. What type of study? a) Primary or secondary?

b) Types of primary: experiments, clinical trials, surveys

3. What type of research? – Intervention, instrument development/testing,

prognosis, causation 93

Evaluating the Methods section

1. Does this new research add to what is already known? In what way(s)?

2. Who was it about?

3. Did the design match the question asked?

4. Was bias minimized or avoided?

5. Was the study large enough (or long enough) to make the results credible?

94

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER

95

EBP

• An APPROACH to practice – Clinician is aware of the evidence

– It’s strength

– How it bears on her/his clinical practice

• A PROCESS – Development of evidence-based knowledge

– Attitude

• Awareness

• Creativity

• Judgment

• Consultation

96

3 legs of EBP

1. Clinical expertise

2. Client & family

3. Science

98

99

Questions for thought…

• Is EBP different from what you thought it was? How is it different?

• How are you already practicing EBP?

• How can you contribute to the evidence?
