2. Which standards were developed to help nursing students develop the skills, knowledge,
and attitudes needed to continuously improve quality and safety?
a. EBP
b. IRB
c. QSEN
d. ANCC Magnet
ANS: C
The Quality and Safety Education for Nursing, or QSEN, project was implemented to
improve prelicensure nurses' knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to continuously
improve quality and safety in healthcare systems. EBP is evidence-based practice, which is
the basis for developing practice guidelines that are grounded in the best evidence and
research. IRBs are institutional review boards; whose purpose is to protect human subjects in
research studies. Magnet criteria are standards for a practice model for hospitals seeking
accreditation through the American Nurses Credentialing Center.

1. Which is true about evidence-based practice?
a. Evidence-based guidelines are unrelated to accreditation regulations.
b. Evidence-based practice is determined only through experimental studies.
c. Most nursing interventions are based on evidence-based principles.
d. The use of evidence-based practice results in improved patient outcomes.
ANS: D
The greatest benefits of EBP are improved outcomes for patients, providers, and healthcare
agencies. The Joint Commission revised their accreditation criteria to emphasize patient care
quality achieved through EBP. EBP guidelines are based on all types of research, using the
best research knowledge available. Some nursing interventions are evidence based
currently, but many require additional research to generate the knowledge essential for
making changes in practice.
