EvidenceAnalysisLibrary Part I EAL Part I presentation includes: List of Current EAL Projects Steps in Evidence Analysis Process Navigating the EAL Updated September 2006
www.adaevidencelibrary.com Online Resource with the best available research on important dietetics topics in a practitioner-friendly format
Definition Why evidence-based practice? Current Projects/Topics Steps in Evidence Analysis Process Example from EAL Key messages
“Evidence-Based Dietetics Practice is the use of systematically reviewed scientific evidence in making food and nutrition practice decisions by integrating best available evidence with professional expertise and client values to improve outcomes.” Definition/Description Revised by EBP Committee and approved by HOD Leadership January 2006
To improve patient outcomes To improve patient safety & the quality & efficiency of practice To take advantage of the “exploding” body of biomedical knowledge Thousands of new research studies appear every month Why Evidence-based Practice?

Steps in ADA’s Evidence Analysis Process Evidence Analysis Process
Formulate Questions. Expert Workgroup defines questions and the analytical framework; lists keywords for search terms, and determines Inclusion / Exclusion Criteria for Literature Review. Gather and Classify Evidence Reports Lead Analyst conducts Literature Review for each question; records information online in Search Plan & Results. Work group approves list of included articles for analysis. Steps in ADA’s Evidence Analysis Process
Critically Appraise Each Report Analysts critically review articles and create article Worksheets that are reviewed by Lead Analysts and expert workgroup. Write the Evidence Summary Analysts and Lead Analysts complete Evidence Summaries and Overview Tables that are reviewed and approved by expert workgroup. Steps in ADA’s Evidence Analysis Process
Grade the Conclusion Statement Workgroup members reach consensus on a brief conclusion statement (the answer to the evidence analysis question) and assign a grade based on the strength and quality of the evidence. Steps in ADA’s Evidence Analysis Process
Publish online to the EAL Question, Conclusion, Grade, Search Plan & Results, Evidence Summary, Overview Table, Article Worksheets, and Quality Checklists are published online. Position Papers and Guidelines Published Evidence Analysis Questions are used in ADA position papers and to support guideline recommendations. Next Steps
Question Conclusion Statement & Grade Search Plan & Results Evidence Summary Bibliography Worksheets & Quality Checklists Example from EAL Drill down to the level of detail desired.
Example: www.adaevidencelibrary.com Select Diseases and Conditions tab.
1. Select a project from list of Diseases & Conditions. 2. Choose a topic Disorders of Lipid Metabolism (select project) Macronutrients (choose topic) 3. Choose a sub-topic -if needed Trans-fatty acids (sub-topic)
Question What is the relationship between diets high in trans fatty acids and serum cholesterol levels? Bibliography for Topic
Conclusion Statement/Grade “Mouse over” or click on Question to see Conclusion & Grade Trans-fatty acids raise total cholesterol and LDL-C. Unlike saturated fatty acids, trans-fatty acids do not increase and may decrease HDL-C. Trans-fatty acids increase the TC/HDL-C ratio in a dose dependent manner. GRADE I
