Midwives' Perceptions of Barriers to Implementing Evidence-Based Practice in Northern Jordan.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Through evidence-based practice (EBP) implementation, midwives are critical in maternal care. However, there remain unrecognised barriers that they frequently experienced. Such barriers within Jordan perspective include insufficient managerial support, excessive workloads and limited resources. Objective: To gain an in-depth understanding and facilitate the implementation of maternity care improvements, this study examines the perspectives of midwives concerning the barriers to implementing EBP in northern Jordan. Methods: This study adopted a cross-sectional, descriptive design with the BARRIERS scale to investigate the barriers during the implementation process including adopter, communication, organisation and innovation. 191 midwives participated with the scale, all works from the gynaecology and obstetrics departments within seven government and university hospitals in Northern Jordan. Analyses were performed upon the data including descriptive statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and linear regression. Results: Midwives perceptions indicated that the top three barriers to the implementation of EBP are innovation, organisation and communication. The regression analysis revealed a negative correlation between perceived barriers and education level (F (2, 188) = 8.657, p < 0.001). However, there were no correlation between age and work experience. Conclusion: The midwives revealed that the major obstacles to EBP utilisation are organisational factors. The key facilitator is proper support from the management. Therefore, the recommendation from this study is the implementation of robust strategies that reduces organisational barriers, strengthen staff training, managerial and police support as well as active engagement with leadership.Despite the focus of this research is Jordan, the findings may not be specific to this region. As such, it is possible to assume that the recommendations can be applied to maternity care within healthcare contexts that have similar organisational attributes and challenges. However, cautious interpretation of the findings must be made due to the geographical limitations and reliance upon self-reported data within this study.
