Abstract

Background:Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a systematic approach to professional practice using the best available evidence to make informed clinical decisions in healthcare. It is necessary to measure and identify strengths and opportunities for improvement. Objective: To assess the knowledge and application of EBP in respiratory health professionals in Latin America. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted. The questionnaire was distributed online to health professionals in Latin American countries. Demographic data, professional characteristics, EBP training, and questionnaire responses were collected. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed. Results: A total of 448 respiratory health professionals participated in the study. Responses were obtained from 17 countries where the majority were female, with an average age of 42. Participants included physicians, physiotherapists, nurses, respiratory therapists, speech therapists, and occupational therapists. Overall scores indicated moderate to high levels of EBP knowledge and application. However, variations were observed in different dimensions. Factors such as EBP training, reading scientific articles, and professional characteristics were associated with higher scores. Barriers to implementing EBP were identified mostly related to institutional support. Conclusions: This study provides information on the knowledge and implementation of EBP in respiratory health professionals in Latin America. Although the overall levels of knowledge and application of EBP were moderate to high, there are options for improvement, especially in addressing barriers to implementation.

拉丁美洲呼吸系统保健专业人员的循证实践:
背景:循证实践(EBP)是一种系统的专业实践方法,利用现有的最佳证据在医疗保健领域做出明智的临床决策。有必要对其进行衡量,并确定其优势和改进机会:评估拉丁美洲呼吸系统保健专业人员对 EBP 的了解和应用情况:方法:进行横断面研究。调查问卷通过网络发放给拉丁美洲国家的医疗卫生专业人员。收集了人口统计学数据、专业特点、EBP 培训和问卷答复。研究进行了描述性和推论性统计分析:共有 448 名呼吸系统卫生专业人员参与了研究。调查对象来自 17 个国家,大多数为女性,平均年龄为 42 岁。参与者包括医生、物理治疗师、护士、呼吸治疗师、语言治疗师和职业治疗师。总体得分表明,EBP 的知识和应用达到了中等至高等水平。然而,在不同的维度上也观察到了差异。EBP 培训、阅读科学文章和专业特点等因素与较高的得分有关。实施 EBP 的障碍主要与机构支持有关。结论:本研究提供了拉丁美洲呼吸健康专业人员对 EBP 的了解和实施情况。虽然 EBP 的总体知识水平和应用水平处于中等偏上水平,但仍有改进的余地,尤其是在解决实施障碍方面。
