The key resource for students studying to become athletic trainers.

Evidence-based practice (EBP) means that all clinical decisions are based on available research studies, and these studies are selected and assessed according to specific criteria that yield evidence of benefit. Evidence-Based Practice in Athletic Training, Second Edition With HKPropel Access, introduces students and practitioners to the basics of EBP and the research design methods that are vital to its implementation.

A resource for students studying athletic training and practitioners, the text is split into three basic parts:

Part I provides the background information necessary to implement EBP in daily athletic training practice. Part II describes different types of research articles, how and where to locate them, and how to critically evaluate them. Part III delves into research methods and ethical research practices.

The updated second edition has an expanded depth of content appropriate for master's level education and includes a new chapter discussing types of artificial intelligence and its use in the field of athletic training. Also included are new case examples that lead readers step by step through the research process, offering the chance for further comprehension and practice. Related online content includes additional case studies and links to research resources.

The most beneficial resource of its kind, this text encourages students and current certified athletic trainers to ask meaningful questions, gain the knowledge they need for excelling in future practice, and rise to the top of their profession.

Evidence-Based Practice in Athletic Training will help current and future athletic trainers provide the most appropriate and effective care for their athletes and clients.
