Description
Summary:Evidence-based public health is a decision-making process To determine the best intervention approach for addressing a particular health issue, population, and setting. The decision-making process involves the identification and evaluation of criteria supporting or refuting use of intervention approaches based on previous work in the field. Objective: The purpose of this article is to describe the identification and evaluation of research- and practice-based evidence criteria. Methods: These criteria were derived through literature review and expert panel interviews. Results and conclusions: These evidence criteria provide the foundation for the translation and dissemination of evidence-based intervention planning processes through a Web-based technical advisement system for public healthcare practitioners. Limitations and future directions are considered.
