The goal of this literature review is to show the importance of incorporating evidence based practice (EBP) into the clinical and education setting of nursing. EBP education needs to be added to yearly nursing competencies in all settings of healthcare delivery. While EBP and protocols should never replace clinical critical thinking on an individual, patient to patient level, the community deserves the best care, which is current evidence-based. Nurses are accountable for their choices in practice, EBP empowers nurses to question rationale of protocols and physician orders. There has been an attempt to implement EBP into the clinical practice of the healthcare system nationwide. Statistics are not available for EBP implementation as a whole …show more content…
Data was collected voluntarily via Monkey Survey from the nursing schools whose dean had replied via email and agreed to school participation. ARCC-E (Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through close Collaboration and Education) was used to measure the perception of the effectiveness of EBP courses. Amongst the highest ranking statement on the questionnaire was the availability of data bases, belief in EBP courses being very useful for graduate nursing students and faculty having high expectations of what students can achieve in EBP courses. Amongst the lowest rating was faculty members were EBP mentors for healthcare professionals and that they would like to be mentors. Time constrictions in relation to the amount of academics, theories and skill sets required to be taught in nursing programs. Students’ background knowledge research and understanding of EBP was also noted to hinder …show more content…
(2014) researched Systematic Implementation of Evidence-Based Practice in a Clinical Nursing Setting. It is known that EBP is not sufficiently implemented in daily clinical practice and there is a significant lapse in time between research and implantation in practice. The issues to implementing the Best Practice Mode of Working and EBP discharge protocol into this setting was the limited knowledge of EBP. Patients and caregivers interviewed, expressed desire to be aware of discharge twenty-four hours in advance including follow up and relapse prevention. Patients reported not feeling informed or prepared to go home and successfully continue to heal without relapse or secondary issues. The nurses surveyed from the lung unit also stated that the discharge process was unstructured. Researchers did not find any supporting EBP guidelines to follow for discharging lung patients home, only that discharge instruction should be structured and comprehensive. Researchers worked with the nurses to develop a discharge protocol specific for lung patients using best current research available, nurse expertise, patient perspective and patient feedback. This intervention was only partially met, while the feedback was positive from the discharged patients it was clear that the nurses had difficulty applying EBP steps, suggesting a possible need for a simplified version. Further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of implementing a simplified
Discuss the value of best evidence as a driving force in delivery of nursing care at your facility. Throughout the healthcare system, evidence based practice establishes a foundation where changes are made to improve practice. Leaders in practice are stationed at both the facility and system levels to guarantee the implementation of evidence based practice. ET’s facility’s EMR also contains third party evidence based content that provides care plan, flowsheet, and patient education content. To guarantee that ongoing evidence is imbedded within the EMR through regular upgrades, using a third party makes this possible.
Quinshayla Honeycutt TREC 412: Ms.Russell EBP Summary Disability: Bulimia Eating disorder Modality: Art Therapy Theory: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy The client that was chosen for the EBP would be a 16 year old female adolescent who has an eating disorder called bulimia. Bulimia would be considered an emotional disorder where he or she would have insecurities when it comes to their body images which causes the client to have a desire to lose weight and start to get rid of their quantity of food by vomiting or binge at a short time period.
EBP is an important approach in healthcare settings. According to Sackett and colleagues (1996), EBB was defined as the way of integrating clinical expertise using the excellent available evidence from research undertaken and published (Sackette et al., 1996). The efficiency and effectiveness of EBP relies upon clinical expertise, knowledge and thoughtfulness. EBB requires that every healthcare professional to use their educational skills and experience and valuing their work areas. Even so.
monitors the surgical process to determine risk factors working with the Quality department. The Safety Officer works closely with this Department in preparing and documenting quarterly reports to Administration. As such, the Quality department documents data trends. These trends are compared with safety reviews and risk identification. In turn, these risks of occurrences are managed.
Evidence based practice (EBP) is a process of integrating high quality evidence into practice or care provided by health professionals and decision makers in health care. This discussion will explore the meaning of the term Evidence Based Practice further and discuss its origins. EBP requires finding the best available evidence to inform practice, its greatest benefit being the best possible care for a client. Other benefits and limitations will be further discussed below. EBP demands the client be seen as an individual and their unique circumstances be considered in the application of evidence
Is the research setting similar to your instructional setting. Also, this is an area that the education professional needs to think about when selecting an EBP to ensure similar positive results. Is the setting in the general classroom or a resource room where there are probably more privacy, flexibility, and less opportunities for

Evidence-based nursing practice help to improve individual bedside practice because nurses work in the ward based on knowledge they obtained from previous research. It can also answer problematic clinical practice issue since it aim at solving problem, it improves nurse’s quality and reduces variations in care. Nurses are also confident in their decisions due to the fact that they know what they’re doing and can as well prove it because every patient deserves care that is based on the best scientific knowledge and ensures high quality and are cost-
Research has proven over and over again that using evidenced-based practice (EBP) lowers the cost of healthcare, provides for better patient outcome, and for best work satisfaction among nursing staff. Yet, there is disagreement among nurses about the real value of doing research to change and initiate better nursing practices. The lack of enthusiasm to generate knowledge from research has many different facets, depending on who is questioned. Moving EBP into the clinical practice is complicated by time constraints, increasing demands on nursing care, and the inability to incorporate into the organization’s policies and procedures.
Evidence based is been used widely in nursing practice, which involves integration of a problem solving approach within the framework that concerning care, using the best evidence from research, knowledge and proficiency from clinical together with patients’ beliefs and values. Nursing practice does support EBP as researchers had done many studies that showed improved outcomes when the best evidence is implemented of patient’s care. However, researchers had argued that, there are challenges in attaining and maintaining EBP in nursing practice despite the awareness (Mary, et. al. 2013). By using EBP nurses are able to come up with high quality of nursing care plan for the patients.
In this nurse’s practice, many nurses would love to research and apply evidence to practice, but complain that lack of time is the biggest issue. Combined with the lack of encouragement from management, this has a devastating impact on the ability to perform this vital part of
Introduction Nurses as a professional, we are obligated to deliver the best care to patients. Every interventions that we performed are expected to be based on evidences and underpinned by rationales. In recent years, the idea of evidence-based practice is prevalent (G). To promote the development of evidence-based practice, we have to address the barriers and facilitators (B). In the following, I am going to give a description on evidence-based practice.
Understanding the Healthcare system can be very challenging due to the system is constantly changing from new technology manage care, health care reforms, aging populations and other economic factors that have a significant impact in the service provided. Understanding plays an important role in the health care system because the improving quality in the healthcare system requires the implementation of internationally and recognized evidence based guidelines and protocols. EBP is necessary to integrate the best research with clinical expertise and patient value to establish best health outcomes. We believe that openly outlining and understanding some form of theory that explains the reason for why an intervention may work to induce planned
Giving care to a patient is not a straightforward process because a patient is made up of advanced systems. Symptoms and the severity of a disease process are dependent on a particular patient, and it may not always be uniform from patient to patient. Because of this, nurses must be able to use their knowledge appropriately to help a patient. Nurses use techniques, such as Evidence Based Practice, in order to integrate new and advanced knowledge into their patient care (Canada, 2016). By exercising evidence based practice, nurses effectively seek knowledge, take experience from past situations, and apply this intelligence to best give patient care (Canada, 2016).
The patients are ready to leave the facility and therefore can only grasps a handful of what is being taught to them in those crucial moments between leaving the facility to go back to a home setting. In that small window of time it is not effective to teach about medications or conditions, gain necessary information about patient home life and prepare the patient for the next care setting. Discharge instructions should be patient-centered, individualized and an interdisciplinary approach that occurs throughout the length of the hospital stay and is not concentrated at the end of it, commonly known as peri-discharge. Follow ups with patients, either over the phone or in person, are an underutilized portion of the transitional care model. In a clinical trial study by the Department of Cardiology Medicine at the Boston University Medical Center, the approach of an
