Knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of evidence-informed practice in respiratory therapy: A cross-sectional survey
RTs in Canada demonstrated variable knowledge, attitudes and behaviours across all components of EIP. While reflective practice stood out as the component with the lowest scores across knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours, scores in all three components indicated room for improvement. Together, these findings highlight that all areas of EIP require strengthening through contextually relevant educational strategies to better support RTs in enacting EIP.
