Essential III: Scholarship for Evidence-Based Practice I can demonstrate competency for this Essential because I can understand the concept of an evidence-based practice (EBP). The American Association of Colleges of Nursing stated “the national voice for baccalaureate and graduate nursing programs, believes that education has a significant impact on the knowledge and competencies of the nurse clinician, as it does for all health care providers” (The Impact of Education on Nursing Practice, 2016

Healthcare continues to evolve at an extremely rapid pace. It is vital that patients are given the highest quality of care throughout the duration of care received. Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt (2015) states that evidenced based practice is the key to delivering a higher quality of care that facilitates the most favorable outcomes. In order to remain abreast in the face of change, healthcare providers must research and employ initiatives that forwards the healthcare entity as a whole. Unfortunately

Evidenced based practice (EBP) defined as “clinical decision making based on the simultaneous use of the best evidence, clinical expertise, and the clients” values (p. 28-29). In nursing practice, following EBP will strengthen influences and guide the nurse’s ability and help them provide the best clinical care practice (ANA, 2013). Nurses follows best practice to improve the quality of care for every patient and will assist them in understanding a study that is not well explained or hard to understand

Evidence-based nursing practice is a result of research studies or randomized controlled trials (RCT). However, from these trials, a compilation of the evidence is gathered that determines the direction of future trials. Often, the results or findings of the research article will indicate if further studies are warranted and indicated why these studies would be beneficial. Also, the possibility of any sampling error, or selection bias that may have of skewed results of the RCT. Wong and Myers

In medicine today it is becoming essential to remain on the journey to best possible practice, which “involves implementing available evidence into practice” (Dogherty, et al., 2013, p. 129). Dogherty, et al. (2013) researched the facilitation of evidence based practice by selecting 20 nurses “to attend an interactive knowledge translation symposium to examine what has worked and what has not in implementing evidence in practice.” Results from the study showed both many positive and negative facilitation

Evidence based practice (EBP) models evolved as a result of the need for nurses to have guidance on diffusing the use of research knowledge into practice. There is increasing awareness that these efforts to implement EBP changes into practice should be guided by conceptual models and frameworks. These models can assist by providing an organized method to guide the design and implement the approaches intended to strengthen evidence-based decision making and help clinicians implement an evidence-based

Part A: Importance for Nurses to Utilize Evidence Base Practice Utilizing evidence based practice in nursing is paramount today in the always evolving field of nursing. Having the clinical expertise and knowledge of a nurse is just the first step in making decisions for the treatment of a client. Adding the most recent and up to date evidence alongside with the client’s values and preferences is ideal to guiding the process of healthcare (Kelly & Tazbir, 2010). When evidence based guidelines are

The use of evidence based practice is extremely important so that nurses can provide the best possible, and safest care to our patients. Evidence based practice can be defined as the practice of nursing in which interventions are based on data from research that demonstrates that they are appropriate and successful (Catalano pg. 6). It is required in order to achieve the highest quality and most cost –effective care for our patients. The use of evidence-based practice has had a beneficial impact

The big idea of “How to Read a Paper: The Basics of Evidence-Based Medicine” is that it describes the different types of clinical research reporting, and explains how to critically appraise the publications. The book provides the tools to find and evaluate the literature, and implement the findings in an evidence-based, patient-centered way. It is written for anyone in the health care professions who has little or no knowledge of evidence-based medicine; it provides a clear understanding of the concepts

In the past few decades, many nursing practices were relied on state regulation, cost, or insurance policy. However, evidence based practice (EBP) are increasingly recognized and emphasized to change in nursing practice. For many clinical settings, there are thousands of resources available today. Not only most of nursing practice are made based on a pilot study but also implied to bring most benefits of the care. Simply, benefits of applying EBP in patient care would be the desired outcome for the
