MULTIPLE CHOICE VG




1. Which statement best describes evidence-based practice (EBP)?
VG VG VG VG VG VG


a. A combination of best research evidence, clinical expertise, and the need
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


s and values of patients
VG VG VG VG


b. A determination of the factors necessary to control patient responses to ca
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


re and delivery of care
VG VG VG VG


c. The development of population care guidelines applicable to all patients
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


d. The utilization of quantitative and qualitative studies to enhance patient outcomes
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG




ANS: A VG


Evidence-
based practice evolves from the integration of the best research evidence with clinical
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


expertise and patient needs and values. Studies that attempt to find determinants of pa
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


tient outcomes are generally experimental or quasi-
VG VG VG VG VG VG


experimental. They may be used to guide EBP but do not completely define it. EBP i
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


s a combination of guidelines and specific patient needs and values. Quantitative and q
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


ualitative studies applied to the evaluation of patient outcomes are part of EBP but do
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


VGnot completely define EBP.

3. The nurse is participating in a study and is collecting data identifying the number of
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG V


Gobese adults whose parents were also obese or overweight. Which research method is

situation. By knowing the percentage of parents of obese adults who were obese, the
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


probability of predicting this may be calculated. Control indicates the ability to use a
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


prescribed intervention to produce the desired results. Description involves identifying a

nd understanding the nature of nursing phenomena and the relationships among these
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG


phenomena. Explanation clarifies the relationships among phenomena and identifies wh
VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG VG
