Evidence of Gap in Acute and Primary Care
– Consistent evidence of failure to translate research findings into clinical practice
– 30-40% patients do not get treatments of proven effectiveness
– 20-25% patients get care that is not needed or potentially harmful

What is
Evidence-Informed Decision Making in Public Health?
In addition to the best available research evidence, evidence-informed decisions in public health consider valuable evidence from a variety of sources:
• community health issues and local context• existing public health resources• community and political climate
![Page 17: Evidence-Informed Public Health Decisions Made Easier: Take it one Step at a Time](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5562b22ad8b42a2e6e8b508f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

What is
Evidence-Informed Decision Making in Public Health?
Decision makers must rely on their public health expertise to integrate all relevant factors into any conclusions or recommendations.
![Page 18: Evidence-Informed Public Health Decisions Made Easier: Take it one Step at a Time](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5562b22ad8b42a2e6e8b508f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

What is Evidence-Informed Public Health?
… the process of distilling and disseminating the best available evidence from research, context and experience, and using that evidence to inform and improve public health policy and practice.
![Page 19: Evidence-Informed Public Health Decisions Made Easier: Take it one Step at a Time](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5562b22ad8b42a2e6e8b508f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

What is Evidence-Informed Public Health?
Put simply, it means finding, using and sharing what works in public health.

Why implement Evidence-Informed Public Health?
• Effectively transfer knowledge from both quantitative and qualitative research into practice and policy.
• Efficiently use limited health care resources.
![Page 21: Evidence-Informed Public Health Decisions Made Easier: Take it one Step at a Time](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5562b22ad8b42a2e6e8b508f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Why implement Evidence-Informed Public Health?
• Create programs and actions that are both effective and appropriate for our communities and target populations.
• Improve client satisfaction.• Strengthen public health in Canada.

22
Why implement Evidence-Informed Public Health?
Do what works … and don’t do what does not work!

Barriers to Evidence-Informed Public Health
• Lack of time• Difficulty accessing research• Lack of skills or confidence with critically appraising
evidence• Difficulty interpreting results • Challenges with applying research findings to local
context and setting• Insufficient power or support to make a change• Environment/organizational culture
(Keifer et al.,2005; Retsas, 2000; Thomas et al., 2004)

Scenario
You are a public health nurse working on a team that focuses on healthy living and physical activity. Despite walking being free and relatively safe, a recent survey of adults in the community indicated few people were walking regularly or engaging in any exercise. In a team meeting, you discuss whether a community-wide strategy should be implemented to promote walking and increase physical activity among sedentary adults. You are unsure which intervention would be most effective, and whether specific subgroups should be targeted (vs. a broader approach). Your supervisor has asked you to identify the best available research about the effectiveness of interventions to promote walking, and share with the team.

What is a systematic review?
• A rigorous summary of all primary research evidence relevant to a focused question.
• Evidence is consolidated through a systematic process to avoid possible sources bias at various stages in the review process.

What is a meta-analysis?
• A method for combining the results of several independent studies that measure the same outcomes so that an overall summary statistic can be calculated.

organization, the people, and the change you are trying to make.
• Identify key people.
• Obtain approval from appropriate leadership.
• Create a project timeline.
