  6. Objectives • Systems and processes used in Nova Scotia to develop the Evidence Prehospital Protocol Project Online (EBP3O). • Key features, unique advantages, and challenges faced over the past ten years. • Provide some recommendations.

  9. EBP Objectives: 1996 - present To appraise EMS body of knowledge. To stimulate debate and growth towards evidence-based EMS protocols. To be a resource for the development of local EMS protocols; perhaps with a movement towards "best practice" paramedic protocols. To be a guide to help recognize opportunities for prehospital research. To develop a process of using evidence to evaluate practice change suggestions made by paramedics.

  17. The EBM Cycle & Paramedic Practice Jan Jensen ACP

  18. Unique Aspects • Regional experience in paramedic driven research & EBM. • Annual Research/EBM Conferences and CME • Question Banking • 250 ‘Paramedic Driven’ Questions • Multidisciplinary Working Groups • Students, residents, paramedics, EMS Physicians • National Occupational Competency Profile (NOCP). • EBM and Research Competencies From Evidence to EMS Practice: Building the National Model

  19. NOCP: Competencies

  20. EBP3O Paramedic Nomenclature • EBP ‘Surveillance’ Medics • Any medic who finds relevant information (online, journal, news article etc) and puts into EBP3O library. • EBP ‘Review’ Medics • Any EBM trained medic who formally screens the validity of the information. • EBP ‘Decision Editor’ Medics • Any medic involved in changing the Class of Recommendation/Level of Evidence ‘Dashboard’ on the Evidence-Based Protocols. From Evidence to EMS Practice: Building the National Model

  21. Objectives described. Clinical questions described. Application to patients described. Scope & Purpose Completed Target users defined. Piloted among users. Editorial Independence Stakeholder Involvement Rigour of Development Applicability Systematic searches. Clear selection criteria. Clear procedure for Updating. Clarity & Presentation Specific & unambiguous. Different Mx options considered.

  22. Scope & Purpose Weaknesses Includes individuals from relevant groups. Editorial independent from funding. Conflicts of interest recorded. Editorial Independence Stakeholder Involvement Rigour of Development Applicability Formulation methods clearly described. Explicit link between evidence & recommendation. Expert external review. Key review criteria for monitoring and auditing. Clarity & Presentation Key recommendations easily identifiable. Application support tools.

  23. EB3PO: Other Weaknesses • A contemporary and generalizable method of ‘grading’ evidence is lacking. • Minimal peer review & auditing. • Ensuring that protocols remain up to date. • Minimal funding of infrastructure. • Lack of publications from the EBP3O initiative. From Evidence to EMS Practice: Building the National Model

  24. Scope & Purpose Future Development Patient preferences and views sought. Editorial Independence Stakeholder Involvement Rigour of Development Applicability Consideration of side effects, benefits, risks. Discussion of organisational barriers. Application costs considered. Clarity & Presentation From Evidence to EMS Practice: Building the National Model

  25. EBP3O: Other Future Directions • Creation and linkage of ‘online’ and ‘didactic’ basic and advanced EBP course for paramedics with input into the EB3P0. • ‘Evidence mapping’. • Linkage of protocol compliance/performance with evidence evaluation process. • Integration/adaptation into ILCOR, Cochrane, etc. • Movement of paramedics into these domains. From Evidence to EMS Practice: Building the National Model

  26. Include paramedics early – “content experts”. • A collaborative, community based model is feasible. • Standardised/adaptable prehospital ‘grading’. • Optimize evidence search & appraisal process. • Address the needs of the end-user(s). • Incorporate input from the end-user(s).
