The role of an ASN level nurse in Evidence Based Practice.

Dealing with descriptive data in research that cannot be measured, only described.

Converting the need for information into an answerable question.

Evidence generated by this provides support for the quality and cost-effectiveness of nursing interventions.

In 1972, this man pointed out the importance of properly testing the effectiveness of health care strategies, and stressed the role of randomized control studies.

This Association states, “The registered nurse utilizes current evidence- based nursing knowledge, including research findings, to guide practice.”

Data in research that is numerical and can be measured.

Taking into consideration clinical expertise and patients preferences. Implement on unit.

Degree to which health services for individuals and populations increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes and are consistent with current professional knowledge.

The term evidence-based medicine was introduced in 1992 by this man.

This role should be a doctrinally prepared nurse who directs and participates in clinical research.

A small, preliminary study, in order to evaluate time, cost, and adverse effects to make an appropriate sample size and conduct the official research project.

Looking at effectiveness and efficiency and seeking ways to improve or modify.

This type of science is being used to provide guidance on the best way to incorporate EBP into health care.

In 2003, a statement on evidence-based practice was prepared by the delegates of the Evidence-based Health Care Teachers and Developers conference in Sicily.

An advanced practice nurse who provides direct care to the clients and participates in heath education and clinical research.

The best way of determining cause and effect relationships between treatment and outcomes.

Look at what creditable resources are available and tracking down the best evidence to answer the question.

The intended effect of EBP is to do what to healthcare practices to science and best evidence and to reduce illogical variation in care, which is known to produce unpredictable health outcomes.

This man developed a transdisciplinary model for evidence-based practice in 2009.
