NSG5000 Quiz 2 questions with correct answers
Research Correct Answer-Systemic investigation designed to generate or
contribute generalizable new knowledge to healthcare.
The goal is to generate new knowledge about an intervention or
assessment technique. (Ch. 10, slide 6)
Evidence Based Practice (EBP) Correct Answer-Combines findings
from multiple research studies that focus on the efficacy of a particular
intervention or the accuracy of a specific diagnostic procedure.
It is described as the "study of studies."
The goal is to synthesize existing knowledge generated from multiple
research studies. (Ch. 10, slide 6)
A conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best research-
based evidence when making decisions about care of individual patients.
Evolution into dominant approach for clinical decision making and core
competency for APRNs. (Ch. 10, slide 3)
Nursing Research Correct Answer-Systematic inquiry that generates
knowledge about issues of importance to the nursing profession
(Nursing theories) (Ch. 10, slide 3)
Hypothesis Correct Answer-First step in the EBP process; a measurable
clinical question. (Ch. 10, slide 10)
,May be in response to need to formulate EBPs for prevention of "never
events."
May arise from a need for evidence to support role of APNs in specific
disease or disorder.
The PICOT model aids in formulating the hypothesis. (Ch. 10, slide 11)
Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) Correct Answer-Gold standard
research design for generating evidence; has 3 critical elements:
1. Manipulation of an experimental intervention
2. Comparison of intervention group to control group.
3. Randon allocation of subjects to the intervention or control group.
(Ch. 10, slide 8)
RCT provides objective information.
Random Allocation Correct Answer-Random allocation is an essential
part of RCT because it spreads potentially confounding factors evenly
among treatment and control groups.
PICOT Correct Answer-A model that aids in formulating clinically
relevant and measurable questions.
P- Patient or Population
I- Intervention to be considered.
, C- Comparison (approach used as basis for comparison to the
intervention undergoing scrutiny)
O- Outcome of goal or intervention
T- Time; sometimes added to the PICO model.
Steps of The EBP Process Correct Answer-1. Formulate a measurable
clinical question
2. Search the literature for relevant studies.
3. Critically appraise and extract evidence
4. Implement useful findings in clinical decision making
Evidence Pyramid Correct Answer-Provides taxonomy for ranking
study's potential contribution to EBP based on its design.
Clinical Decision Making Correct Answer-Step 4 of the EBP process.
Creation and implementation of policies on facility or community-wide
level. Creation of EBP clinical practice guidelines to set standards of
care on national or global level.
Four-Point GRADE scale used to evaluate quality of evidence for
clinical practice.
EBP, research, and QI should be seen as complementary and combined
to improve clinical decision making and care processes.
