MULTIPLE CHOICE s!




1. Evidence-based practice is a problem- s! s! s! s!


solving approach to making decisions about PATIENT carethat is grounded in:
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


a. the latest information found in textbooks.
s! s! s! s! s!


b. systematically conducted research studies. s! s! s!


c. tradition in clinical practice. s! s! s!


d. quality improvement and risk-management data. s! s! s! s!




ANS: B s!


The best evidence comes from well-
s! s! s! s! s!


designed, systematically conducted research studies described in scientific journals. Portions of
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


a textbook often become outdated by the time it is published. Many health care settings do not h
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


ave a process to help staff adopt new evidence in practice, and nurses in practice settings lack ea
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


sy access to risk-
s! s! s!


management data, relying instead on tradition or convenience. Some sources of evidence do not
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


originate from research. These include quality improvement and risk-
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


management data; infection control data; retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and clinicia
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


ns‘ expertise. Although
s! s!


non–research-
based evidence is often very valuable, it is important that you learn to rely more on research-
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


based evidence. s!

2. When evidence-based practice is used, PATIENT care will be:
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


a. standardized for all. s! s!


b. unhampered by PATIENT culture. s! s! s!


c. variable according to the situation. s! s! s! s!


d. safe from the hazards of critical thinking. s! s! s! s! s! s!




ANS: C s!


Using your clinical expertise and considering PATIENTs‘ cultures, values, and preferenc
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


es ensures that you will apply available evidence in practice ethically and appropriately. E

appropriate.

3. When a PICOT question is developed, the letter that corresponds with the usual standard of

P = PATIENT population of interest. Identify your PATIENT by age, gender, ethnicity, disease,

I = Intervention of interest. What intervention (e.g., treatment, diagnostic test, and prognostic fact
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


or) do you think is worthwhile to use in practice?
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


O = Outcome. What result (e.g., change in PATIENT‘s behavior, physical finding, and change in
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


PATIENT‘s perception) do you wish to achieve or observe as the result of an intervention?

4. A well-developed PICOT question helps the nurse:
s! s! s! s! s! s!


a. search for evidence. s! s!


b. include all five elements of the sequence. s! s! s! s! s! s!


c. find as many articles as possible in a literature search.
s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


d. accept standard clinical routines. s! s! s!




ANS: A s!

s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s! s!


the situation. Utilizing which of the following resources would be the quickest way to
