The Joanna Briggs Institute

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

JBI, formerly known as the Joanna Briggs Institute, is an international research organisation which develops and delivers evidence-based information, software, education and training designed to improve healthcare practice and health outcomes. JBI works with universities and hospitals internationally through the JBI Collaboration. The JBI Collabos|first1=W. M.|last2=Secoli|first2=S. R.|last3=Püschel|first3=V.

Evidence-based healthcare[edit]

JBI's approach considers the best available evidence, the context in which care is delivered, the individual patient and the professional judgement and expertise of the health professional.[1] JBI regards evidence-based healthcare as a cyclical process. Global healthcare needs, as identified by clinicians or patients/consumers, are addressed through the generation of research evidence that is effective, but also feasible, appropriate and meaningful to specific populations, cultures and settings.[2][3]

The JBI Model[edit]

The JBI Model of Evidence-based Healthcare was developed in 2005 and updated in 2016.[3]

It is described by reference to a pictogram, with one circle inside another.[4] The 'inner circle' represents the pebble of knowledge while the 'inner wedges' provide the organisation's conceptualization of the steps involved in the process of achieving an evidence-based approach to clinical decision-making. The 'outer wedges' operationalise the component parts of the model and articulate how they might be actioned in a pragmatic way. The arrows indicate that the flow can be bi-directional.[3]

Evidence-based practice resources[edit]

JBI has developed evidence-based practice resources and publications which have been driven by the needs of health professionals and consumers worldwide.[citation needed]

Resources include the JBI Evidence Implementation Manual; JBI Evidence Synthesis Manual (JBI's comprehensive guide to conducting systematic reviews); and Critical Appraisal Tools (includes checklists for randomized control trials, qualitative research, economic evaluations and prevalence studies).[citation needed]

Other evidence-based practice resources and publications, such as JBI SUMARI, can be accessed via EBP Resources.[citation needed]

History[edit]

JBI was established in 1996 by the Royal Adelaide Hospital and the University of Adelaide[5]. The organization takes its name from Joanna Briggs, who was the first matron of the Royal Adelaide Hospital.[6]
