I would utilize research and surveys to gain a deep understanding of the specific needs, concerns, and preferences of the patient population I'm advocating for. This ensures the advocacy efforts are truly aligned with what matters most to the patients.

In the medical field we also use the terms Evidence-based Medicine (EBM). If you are not up to date you are being left behind. Keeping up to date is challenging and this is where being part of a network helps. As new information is sourced out can be placed on the group that everyone has access to it in a timely manner. A great resource I found is podcasts that keep you current and a supporting podcast. An example: I listen to The Resus podcast which gives a breakdown of the latest research. Then you research it for yourself. I follow that up listening to persons like Gary V to get insight on how to incorporate it and add it to your brand to show you are current. This reassures your client you are up to date on the latest EBP.

2 Challenges of EBP

EBP is not without its challenges, however. One of the main challenges is finding and accessing the appropriate research evidence for your specific situation and client. You may need to search multiple databases, evaluate the quality and applicability of the studies, and synthesize the results. Another challenge is translating the research evidence into practice, by adapting it to your context and resources, and overcoming any barriers or resistance. A third challenge is evaluating the outcomes and impact of your EBP interventions, by collecting and analyzing data, and making adjustments as needed.

The greatest barrier I have found that has not changed over the last 10 years is that research costs money. All the sites require a monthly subscription or the need to purchase the document. There are so many sites you would need to be well funded. AI these days can assist you in dismantling of the information into it parts to create an easier to understand and therefore easier to implement.

Then search for and retrieve the best available research evidence that answers your question. After that, critically appraise the evidence for its validity, reliability, and relevance to your client and situation. Next, integrate the evidence with your clinical expertise and your client's preferences and values, and implement the intervention or action. Finally, monitor and evaluate the outcomes and impact of your intervention or action, and reflect on your learning and improvement.

4 Resources for EBP

Supporting your EBP efforts can be done through the use of various resources, both online and within your organization. Evidence-based databases, such as Cochrane Library, PubMed, and CINAHL, are online repositories that contain systematic reviews, meta-analyses, guidelines, and other sources of synthesized evidence on various topics and disciplines. Additionally, evidence-based tools like PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) question builder, Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) checklists, and GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) system are available to help you access, appraise and apply the evidence. Lastly, evidence-based networks like Evidence-Based Patient Advocacy Network (EBPAN), Evidence-Based Patient Advocacy Collaborative (EBPAC), and Evidence-Based Patient Advocacy Forum (EBPAF) provide online or offline communities to facilitate the sharing of knowledge, experience and best practices among patient advocates and other professionals.
