Quantum physics is used to explain and describe the momenta and location of very small particles called quanta. If you are a physicist or in a related discipline, you would use quantum physics to describe the effects of subatomic particles. Otherwise, you would not "put quantum physics in to [SIC] practice...."
Although integrated circuits, TV, computers, and a host of technological marvels were developed using the basics of quantum physics, you do not need to know quantum physics to run these gadgets.

If you would like to see a unique answer to your question, I strongly suggest that you watch a movie called "What the Bleep Do We Know?" Although some of the ideas presented are more metaphysical than pure physics, the descriptions of quantum physics in the movie are fairly accurate. You should be able to rent it from Blockbuster or Netflix. I own the movie - I think it is fascinating.

You're using it right now. The study of the behavior of matter and energy at the sub-atomic level led to inventions such as diodes, lasers, transistors.... and computers.
