Evaluating the Evidence
The final step in establishing and monitoring evidence-based midwifery care within your organisation is concerned with evaluating the impact of the evidence your organisation has implemented on health outcomes, health systems and professional practice.
Resources available:
- The JBI Practical Application to Clinical Evidence System (PACES)
- The JBI Patient Outcomes On Line (POOL)
- The JBI Evidence-Based Health Care (EBHC) Metrics Program (Coming Soon!)
JBI PACES is an online audit tool that reduces the time it takes service providers to conduct an evidence-based clinical audit. It allows users to compare data with other organisations of similar size and setting, and offers ideas on how to facilitate a process of change in relation to the use of evidence in practice on a given activity or intervention.
JBI POOL is an online prevalence database, which can be used as a stand-alone database, or in conjunction with JBI PACES. JBI POOL has been designed for clinicians and provider agencies as an easy-to-use tool in the collection and storage of prevalence data.

The JBI EBHC Metrics Program is an online resource that JBI is currently developing, in collaboration with midwifery providers. Metrics are systems of related measures to facilitate the quantification of performance/outcomes. In midwifery, metrics are used to monitor and establish a facility or organisation's progress towards the achievement of specified performance and outcome indicators.
All resources are available to corporate members of JBI and JBI COnNECT subscribers ONLY. For further information on membership or subscription, please contact JBI:jbi@adelaide.edu.au
