In this non-systematic review, evidence-based practice (EBP) in Australian speech pathology research and practice is examined. Many Australian researchers are contributing to the theoretical evidence through systematic reviews, randomised controlled trials, and other clinical research. Additionally, Australian researchers are integrating international theoretical evidence via speechBITE and other initiatives. Australian speech pathologists' clinical expertise is supported via Speech Pathology Australia and an example of the implementation of EBP in clinical contexts is the NSW EBP Network. Within Australia, research attention also has been directed towards the client's choice and the client's voice. This paper acknowledges limitations of implementing EBP in Australia: suggesting that inclusion of the client's voice could be formalised and that additional research needs to be undertaken to address practical differencesi n service delivery models between Australian and international contexts.
在这项非系统性综述中,对澳大利亚言语病理学研究与实践中的循证实践(EBP)进行了考察。许多澳大利亚研究人员通过系统性综述、随机对照试验及其他临床研究为理论证据做出了贡献。此外,澳大利亚研究人员正通过SpeechBITE及其他举措整合国际理论证据。澳大利亚言语病理学家的临床专业知识通过澳大利亚言语病理学协会得到支持,而新南威尔士州循证实践网络就是循证实践在临床环境中实施的一个例子。在澳大利亚国内,研究关注点也指向了客户的选择和客户的声音。本文承认在澳大利亚实施循证实践存在局限性:表明客户声音的纳入可以形式化,并且需要开展更多研究以解决澳大利亚与国际环境中服务提供模式的实际差异。
