JBI’s approach to evidence-based healthcare is unique. JBI considers #EBHC as decision-making that considers the feasibility, appropriateness, meaningfulness and effectiveness (FAME) of healthcare practices. Read below to learn more about the JBI Model of EBHC. 
The inner circle represents the pebble of knowledge while the inner wedges provide JBI’s conceptualisation of the steps involved in the process of achieving an evidence-based approach to clinical decision-making.
The outer wedges operationalise the component parts of the Model and articulate how they might be actioned in a pragmatic way. The arrows indicate that the flow can be bi-directional.
The latest issue of the JBI Evidence Synthesis journal is out now and includes THREE diverse evidence syntheses, each employing a different #JBIMethodology.
A qualitative systematic review aims to identify, critically appraise, and synthesise the available evidence on the experiences of people with progressive memory disorders who are involved in non-pharmacological interventions: journals.lww.com/jbisrir/Abstra…
Qualitative methods & data are increasing in usage in #EBHC research. Instead of quantifying or statistically portraying the data or findings, qualitative research focuses on individuals & gives voice to the patient/client or provider in the healthcare decision-making process.

The featured systematic review is a review of etiology and risk which examines the rates of 3 harms of interest in remote communities where alcohol restriction policies are in place for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people: journals.lww.com/jbisrir/Fullte…
Systematic reviews of etiology & risk factors assess the relationship (association) between certain factors (whether genetic or environmental for example) and the development of a disease or condition or other health outcome.

Read this Tweetorial on relative ranks for methodological quality assessment by Jennifer Stone, Research Fellow in the JBI #EBHC Research Division, for #JBImethodology month 1/7
Did you know that there’s an alternative bias assessment method for primary studies in meta-analyses and systematic reviews that does not require reviewer judgments? 2/7
This approach uses relative ranks that are based on quality counts.

To celebrate #JBIMethodologyMonth, we have developed a #Tweetorial to share our thoughts on how to drive momentum for evidence-based healthcare so that it becomes embedded in the fibre and fabric of every organisation. (1/11) @JBIEBHC
Since its emergence in the 1990’s, #EBHC has made great strides in locating, synthesising, summarising, and disseminating evidence- but sustainable mechanisms for getting trustworthy evidence into policy and practice continues to be less well understood. (2/11)
The concept of a “flywheel effect” has been adopted in management fields to demonstrate how change in organisations or practices rarely happens in one fell swoop; rather, sustainable change requires energy and persistent effort. (3/11)
I have been told that scoping reviews (ScRs) are ‘lesser’ or ‘inferior’ to systematic reviews (SRs). Here is a thread on why that is a complete lie! /1 #JBImethodology #EBHC @JBIEBHC #ScRsAreAwesome
I remember in my PhD being told that my ScR wouldn’t even get published, because it is a ‘poor form’ of a SR.
We need to change this perception! Because it leads to the belief that ScRs should not be conducted in a rigorous and transparent manner- which it should be! /2

Let’s remember, ScRs and SRs are both forms of evidence synthesis. However, they have different purposes, and subsequently, questions, and in some areas, conduct differs /3
We profile Neda Kabiri's impact story as part of our 25th anniversary celebrations. Read thread👇on how Neda used the JBI approach to evidence implementation to promote informed consent in a children’s hospital in Tabriz, Iran.
#WeAreJBI
#WeAreJBI
Informed consent is considered a continuous & dynamic process, and it becomes complex in paediatric clinical practice, where parents must make decisions for their children.
The aim of the evidence implementation project was to evaluate current practice and implement best practice related to promoting informed consent in nursing and medical procedures, as well as surgical consent in the paediatric hospital.
We profile @DanielaFilipa89 & her impact story as part of our 25th anniversary celebrations. Read thread below for insights on 'Evidence-based practice capacity building: a Portuguese experience with undergraduate nursing students'.
#WeAreJBI
#WeAreJBI
Studies have identified education and training as a strategy to promote evidence-based practice (EBP) implementation, and to close the gap between research and practice.
A team at The Portugal Centre for Evidence Based Practice designed & implemented a project to integrate EBP into undergraduate nursing curricula within 9 nursing education institutions.
We profile Luciana Gouveia & her impact story as part of our 25th anniversary celebrations. Read thread👇 on how Luciana & team used the JBI approach to implementation to improve mothers’ experience of childbirth through evidence-based intrapartum care.

#WeAreJBI
Abuse & disrespect in childbirth care has been deemed a public health issue in Brazil. Many studies have documented the prevalence of discriminatory & hostile attitudes in childbirth care.
Only 5.6% of Brazilian women have normal births without inappropriate & excessive invasive (often not informed or consented to) interventions during vaginal birth, eg the Kristeller manoeuvre, often leading to poor obstetric outcomes.
We profile Yanni Wu & her impact story as part of our 25th anniversary celebrations. Read thread👇on the evidence-based project Yanni implemented on embedding pre-treatment assessment for patients with #BreastCancer undergoing chemotherapy into hospital policy. #WeAreJBI
Chemotherapy drugs can result in side effects such as renal toxicity which is why evidence-based guidelines state that comprehensive health assessments should be conducted prior to administration of chemotherapy.
Yanni Wu is an advanced research nurse at Nanfang Hospital. She conducted a clinical audit of pre-treatment assessment for patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy which indicated significant deficits in pre-treatment assessment nursing practice at Nanfang Hospital.

adolescents with #SickleCellDisease.
story on how health outcomes were improved for
adolescents with #SickleCellDisease.
Sickle cell disease is a serious, inherited, lifelong condition that affects most countries in the African region. It is associated with a very high rate of mortality of about 50-90% & lifelong morbidity. In some areas of sub-Saharan Africa, up to 2% of all children are born SCD.
Adolescents with sickle cell disease have the highest rate of morbidity as they struggle to manage their condition through early recognition of signs & symptoms, when to seek medical care & in practicing routine selfcare behaviours.
To celebrate #WorldEBHCDay, @JBIEBHC developed a #Tweetorial on our approach to facilitation as an essential component of @JBIEBHC evidence #implementation strategy. @alexamcarthur1 @kylie_porritt (1/9)
Achieving practice changes using the @JBIEBHC evidence #implementation framework requires facilitation skills that include the ability to articulate a purpose and an action plan; inform, motivate and persuade others; solicit support; and foster team development. (2/9)
@JBIEBHC facilitation capitalises on a strategic partnership between evidence #implementation researchers (external facilitators) and frontline clinicians (internal facilitators) who drive the practice change based on a solid understanding of the local context. (3/9)
Read thread👇for an outline of #EvidencetoImpact story, ‘Reducing maternal & neonatal deaths by improving quality of care during labour’, by @valerynji90 as we begin our 7-day countdown to #WorldEBHCDay on 20 October!
According to the @WHO, almost all maternal deaths during pregnancy, delivery or within 42 days of childbirth occur in low-resource settings, and most could have been prevented.
Cameroon is one of the countries with the highest maternal and neonatal mortality rates. Dr Valery Nji implemented evidence-based strategies to improve the quality of care during labour in order to reduce maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.

In the National Health Service (NHS) in England, Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) decide what services are required for diverse populations and ensure their provision.
Hannah Syed is a medicines management adviser for Eastbourne, Hailsham & Seaford CCG, and Hastings & Rother CCGs. She observed that prescribing levels for diabetes, in particular, GLP-1 mimetics, were much higher than the national average in both these CCGs.
