Evidence-based Nursing and Improving Patient Satisfaction: A Systematic Evaluation

Objective: This study aims to explore the effect of evidence-based nursing (EBN) on improving patient satisfaction by systematically evaluating the impact of EBN implementation through the analysis of 40 hospital-related literature articles. Methods: A review of 40 studies published from January 2022 to December 2023 related to EBN and patient satisfaction was conducted. The selection was based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, focusing on studies that involved EBN interventions. Data were extracted and statistically analyzed using patient satisfaction scores and nursing quality assessments to compare satisfaction before and after EBN implementation. Results: Literature analysis showed that patient satisfaction significantly improved after the implementation of EBN, with average satisfaction scores increasing from 82.5% before intervention to 91.3% after intervention (P < 0.05). The application of EBN enhanced patients’ care experience, reduced nursing errors, and significantly improved the efficiency and professional competence of healthcare staff. Conclusion: This study confirms that EBN has a significant effect on improving patient satisfaction, particularly in personalized care and evidence-based decision-making. Future efforts should promote EBN and standardize nursing processes to continuously improve care quality and patient satisfaction.
