Evidence based nursing is presented in this article, including its beginning from evidence based medicine up to the nursing efforts of those dedicated to the evidence studies trying to find an adequate definition for the discipline. Afterwards, a revision of scientific evidence implementation steps is performed as well as how these ones are taking distance from the actual biomedical model since its beginning. Finally, barriers and strategies as related with its implementation for the nursing practice are presented.
