Translation of Evidence to Practice Does the compliance with a sedation protocol improve after nurses receive a sedation competency over a three month period? The available data supported the hypothesis that nursing education and competency can lead to consistent best practices and positive outcomes for patients. The answers to this research question can help develop interventions that support best practices for patients who are mechanically ventilated and receiving intravenous sedation. The literature

Evidence based practice is a practice that is based upon the best available evidence, patient preferences, and clinical judgments (Schmidt & Brown, 2012).

Competency Differences between ADN and BSN Prepared Nurse Nursing education encompasses a vast continuum. Within the undergraduate subdivision, there are two preparatory levels of nursing education: Associates Degree in Nursing (ADN) and Baccalaureate Degree in Nursing (BSN). Although the underlying philosophies of patient-centered care and compassion remain consistent between both degree-levels, there are distinctions pertaining to clinical decision-making and care delivery
BSN is expected to also use research studies for a basis for their decision making. ADN analyzes assessment data, where BSN synthesizes comprehensive assessment data to solve problems. ADN?s evaluate and report outcomes and plan interventions from evidence based practice, where BSN nurses compare these interventions and outcomes to criterion in research, and evidence-based practice then plans follow-up nursing care. They both create teaching plans
