PT 735 Evidence-Based Practice II

The second in a two course series, this course builds on all previous course work in EBP and is designed to prepare physical therapy students with the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to make independent judgments about the validity of clinical research and to implement evidence-based clinical practice in their clinical rotations. This course will prepare students to find, appraise, and integrate evidence for clinical decision-making, with particular emphasis on prognosis for a given patient, and the effectiveness of clinical interventions. The majority of this course work involves the creation and development of the final Capstone project.
