We all agree that research is the highest form of reliable
evidence, when implemented in an organization that provides the
basis for an evidence based practice. FIND a research study
published in a peer reviewed journal related to a clinical practice
problem that is of interest to you, and which would ultimately
contribute to an evidence based practice (See “TeamSTEPPS Improves
Operating Room Efficiency and Patient Safety” attached article).
The discussion assignment:
ANSWER the following discussion questions. Include the
research study in your post (attach it to the post and post it in
doc sharing). See page 11 #15 in MazurekMelynk, Gallagher Ford,
English Long and Fineout-Overholt. In this assignment, you are
being asked to critically appraise a single research study for its
relevance to a QI practice problem.
Discussion questions:
1) Briefly summarize study findings, conclusions and
recommendations. Do you agree with these?
2) As a DNP prepared nurse, would you recommend a change in
nursing practice based on the study? Defend and/or justify your
decision based on research evaluation principles. In other words,
does the evidence generated by this research article signify a need
to change nursing practice? If not, why not; if so, why?
