How is EBP Applied in Cancer Screening and Prevention?
EBP also plays a vital role in cancer screening and prevention. Guidelines for screening, like those for mammograms, colonoscopies, and Pap smears, are based on extensive research to identify the best methods for early detection. Preventive measures such as vaccinations (e.g., HPV vaccine) and lifestyle modifications (e.g., smoking cessation) are also grounded in evidence.
