Step 2 in EBP Process

a quantitative=numeric=nominal

prescriptive theories

address nursing interventions and the consequences of those interventions; they are designed to control, promote, and change clinical nursing practice.

Adaption Theory

adjustment of living matter to other living things and environment conditions 1. self 2. social (others) 3. physical (biochemical reactions)

Step 1 in EBP Process

ask a question about clinical area of interest or an intervention by using PICOT

Nursing Knowledge

awareness of reality acquired through learning or investigation

A conceptual framework is defined as: a. a foundation for nursing skills and care. b.a set of concepts and propositions.

b

quanitive research

basic and applied research also called pratical research

comparison of interest comparison to another treatment or the usual standard of care

descriptive theories

describe one event situation or relationship that further identify the circumstance which occurs

scientific foundation for clinical practice prevent disease and disability manage and eliminate symptoms caused by illness enhance end of life and palliative care

to explore and describe events in real life situations

historical

b

Which represents the basic framework of the research process? a.Quantitative data b.Nursing process

b. The nursing process (i.e., assessing, diagnosing, planning, implementing, and evaluating) represents the basic framework of the research process. Quantitative research is the systematic empirical investigation of observable phenomena via statistical, mathematical, or computational techniques

scientific knowledge

obtain through scientific method implying through research

T in PICOT

time the compromised is completed

A nurse is reviewing nursing theory for usefulness in a home healthcare setting. Which is the appropriate application of Dorothea Orem's Self-Care Model in a home healthcare setting? a.Match the client's self-care needs with appropriate supportive interventions. b.Assist the client to conserve and maintain principles of personal and social integrity.

a

The nurse is preparing to submit a research project to the institutional review board (IRB). The nurse understands that which is the purpose of the IRB? a.Determine the validity of the research project b.Ensure the ethical treatment of all participants

b

When the nurse researcher informs the participant that the participant's identity will not be linked with the information that is collected, the researcher is ensuring the participant's: a.anonymity. b.confidentiality.

b

Step 5 EBP Process

evaluate the practice decision or change is it effective

deductive reasoning

examines general idea and then considers specific actions or ideas

P in PICOT

Patient population of interest need for explicit description, may include setting, limiting subgroups

quasi-experimental research

To examine cause-and-effect relationships between selected variables effects of nursing interventions on patient outcomes

A nursing theory differs from a theoretical framework in which way? a.Concepts and propositions are more specific b. Cause and effect of nursing actions are described

a

Evidence-based care emphasizes decision making based on the best available evidence and: a.use of outcome studies to guide decisions. b.evaluation by experts to direct care in specialty areas.

a

The nurse is reading about nursing theorists for a class. The theory reveals the following, "Individuals who use self-care to sustain life and health, to recover from disease or injury, or to cope with its effects." Which individual developed this theory? a.Dorothea Orem b.Florence Nightingale

a

The second step in implementation of evidence-based practice includes systematic review. To complete a systematic review of the literature, what must the nurse do? a. Summarize findings from multiple studies that are related to a particular nursing practice. b.Provide a statical analysis for studies.

a

Which is true of concepts? a.Concepts describe objects, properties, and events and the relationships among them. b.Concepts are derived through deductive and inductive reasoning.

a

A nurse researcher is studying female clients who have survived breast cancer. The nurse asks each client to describe her experience and then analyzes the data for the meaning of the experience within each person's own reality. This nurse has used what type of qualitative research method? a. Phenomenology b. Ethnography

a the purpose of phenomenology is to describe experiences as they are lived by the subjects being studied. Studying a group of female clients who have survived breast cancer is an example of phenomenology. Ethnography research is based on examining issues of a culture that are of interest to nursing

Step 3 in EBP Process

ask 3 questions 1. what was the result of the study 2. are the results valid and reliable 3. will the results improve patient care

b

A nursing theorist studies health care systems in communities. Which statement accurately describes a characteristic of these systems? a.The system is independent of its subsystems in that a change in one element does not affect the whole b.Boundaries separate health care systems both from each other and from the environment.

b

An abstract idea or object that relates to other abstract ideas or objects is which? a.Deductive reasoning b.Concept

b

Nurses in an ICU noticed that their clients required fewer interventions for pain when the ICU was quiet. They then asked a researcher to design a study about the effects of noise on the pain levels of hospitalized clients. How does this demonstrate the ultimate goal of expanding the nursing body of knowledge? a.Nursing research draws conclusions about the quality of client care. b.Nursing research helps improve ways to promote and maintain health.

b

The American Nurses Association's Commission on Nursing Education developed guidelines for the investigative function of nurses at different educational levels. Which guideline is for a nurse with an associate degree? a.Reads, interprets, and evaluates research for applicability to nursing practice b.Assists in collection of data within an established, structured format

b The nurse with an associate degree assists in collection of data within an established, structured format. The nurse with a bachelor's degree reads, interprets, and evaluates research for applicability to nursing practice, identifies nursing problems that need to be investigated, and participates in implementation of scientific studies.
