Abstract

Objective: This study aims to assess the knowledge - skills, attitudes, and practices of evidence-based practice (EBP) among nurses, in order to formulate effective improvement strategies based on the findings. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from April 2023 to July 2023, involving 231 nurses at Le Van Thinh Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City. The EBPQ questionnaire was utilized as the research tool to collect data on knowledge - skills, attitudes, and practices toward EBP. Results: The scores for knowledge - skills, attitudes, and practices toward EBP were 3.51 ± 0.65, 3.52 ± 0.91, and 3.48 ± 0.66, respectively, indicating a moderate level. Female participants demonstrated significantly better attitudes toward EBP. Younger age groups and higher educational level groups were associated with higher EBP scores (p < 0.05). Furthermore, nurses with 5 years or more of experience showed a significantly lower practice of EBP. Conclusion: The findings suggest that nurses currently lack strong knowledge - skills, attitudes, and practices toward EBP in patient care. Implementing policies to promote EBP qualification is essential.
