Evidence‐based practice affects clinical decision‐making. Interpreting clinical research is important because of its influence on patient safety and efficacy of treatment options. While most traditional research focuses on statistically significant findings, clinical researcher should focus on clinically significant changes. A research outcome could be statistically significant, but not be clinically significant, or the other way around. Unfortunately, clinical significance is not well defined. Clinically relevant changes in outcomes are related as several similar terms including minimal clinically important differences (MCID), clinically meaningful differences (CMD), and minimally important changes (MIC). Usually these terms all refer to the smallest change in an outcome score that should be considered important or worthwhile by the clinician and could result in a change in the way the patient is managed. Changes in outcomes exceeding these minimal scores are considered clinically relevant (Page, 2014).

Because of the heterogeneity of the patient sample within the Surgical ICU (mostly males over 65), small sample size (a 14 bed unit), and limitations on hypothesis testing, the outcomes of the proposed urinary catheter protocol could still be considered clinically‐relevant despite the fact that these measures fall below statistical significance (Meddings et al., 2013).
