Routledge Practice-based Evidence for Healthcare Book

Explore a fresh perspective on clinical decision-making with Practice-based Evidence for Healthcare: Clinical Mindlines by Routledge. This book challenges the current assumptions of the evidence-based practice movement by focusing on real-world application. While evidence-based practice is now a standard part of training for all health professionals, the traditional model often fails to account for how clinicians actually use knowledge in practice. By drawing on a wide range of theoretical frameworks, this text examines why the idealised model of evidence use often falls short in clinical settings. Instead of insisting on how clinicians ought to act, this work seeks to understand the actual processes behind clinical reasoning. It provides a necessary re-evaluation of how knowledge is applied, making it a significant resource for those studying medical, legal, and social sciences. This book offers a grounded approach to understanding the gap between theoretical evidence and everyday healthcare practice.
