What are examples of evidence-based practice tools used for planning patient care?

1. Clinical Practice Guidelines: Clinical practice guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations for clinical care that can be used to plan patient care. These guidelines take into account the latest medical research and best practices in order to provide clinicians with the most up-to-date information about how to treat patients based on their individual needs.

2. Outcome Measurement Tools: Outcome measurement tools are used to assess patient progress and determine if interventions are effective in achieving desired outcomes. Examples of such tools include quality of life questionnaires, patient satisfaction surveys, and health related functioning scales.

3. Patient Education Materials: Patient education materials can help improve outcomes by providing accurate information about different conditions and treatments which will enable patients to make informed decisions about their healthcare options. These materials usually include leaflets, brochures, videos or other multimedia resources that can be tailored towards specific audiences depending on their needs.
