Abstract

Objective: Describe the development and implementation of an evidence-based practice (EBP) training program for occupational and physical therapists in a large pediatric hospital.

Context: EBP is valued, but a known knowledge-to-practice gap between academic training and clinical practice limits routine use. This gap was addressed through an academic-clinical partnership to develop an EBP training program.

Results: Sixty-one therapists completed the program. Therapists demonstrated improved EBP skills, knowledge, and confidence following training and a positive trend in change score for clinical outcomes and decision-making scores was noted.

Conclusion: Academic-clinical partnerships have a unique and valuable role to support professional EBP knowledge and skill development. Stakeholder support and engagement supported program development, execution, and meaningful outcomes.

Impact statement: The knowledge-to-practice gap for EBP is a challenge to regular EBP use. The described program addressed this challenge and improved therapists' knowledge, skills, and confidence. It provides a model for professional development.

为多学科康复部门制定和实施循证实践 (EBP) 教育计划。

目标：描述大型儿科医院职业和物理治疗师循证实践（EBP）培训计划的发展和实施情况：描述一家大型儿科医院为职业治疗师和物理治疗师制定并实施的循证实践（EBP）培训计划：背景：循证实践受到重视，但学术培训与临床实践之间已知的知识与实践之间的差距限制了循证实践的常规使用。为了弥补这一差距，学术界和临床界合作开发了一项 EBP 培训计划：结果：61 名治疗师完成了该项目。培训后，治疗师的 EBP 技能、知识和信心均有所提高，临床结果和决策评分的变化呈正向趋势：学术与临床合作在支持专业 EBP 知识和技能发展方面具有独特而宝贵的作用。利益相关者的支持和参与支持了项目的开发、执行和有意义的成果：影响声明：EBP 从知识到实践的差距是对常规 EBP 使用的挑战。所述计划应对了这一挑战，提高了治疗师的知识、技能和信心。它为专业发展提供了一种模式。

期刊介绍： Pediatric Physical Therapy is an indexed international journal, that publishes peer reviewed research related to the practice of physical therapy for children with movement disorders. The editorial board is comprised of an international panel of researchers and clinical scholars that oversees a rigorous peer review process. The journal serves as the official journal for the pediatric physical therapy professional organizations in the Netherlands, Switzerland, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. The journal includes articles that support evidenced based practice of physical therapy for children with neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory and developmental conditions that lead to disorders of movement, and research reports that contribute to the foundational sciences of pediatric physical therapy, ranging from biomechanics and pediatric exercise science to neurodevelopmental science. To these ends the journal publishes original research articles, systematic reviews directed to specific clinical questions that further the science of physical therapy, clinical guidelines and case reports that describe unusual conditions or cutting edge interventions with sound rationale. The journal adheres to the ethical standards of theInternational Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
