Unit 8 Introduction: Scholarly
Clinical Inquiry - Part Two
Advanced practice nurses need to be equipped with knowledge and requisite
skill set for searching for and locating current evidence-based practice
guidelines. Over the course of your nursing education you have learned how
to search scholarly literature and resources for evidence to support
discussions that you construct in assignments. Presented in this unit are key
concepts related to finding and evaluating published clinical practice
guidelines.
Unit Learning Objectives
Examine competencies observed in the advanced practice nurse
relative to locating and applying evidence to clinical care decisions
Explore and evaluate published clinical practice guidelines for
application to clinical care decision making
Assess and critique illustrative examples of the application of clinical
practice guidelines for clinical care decisions
Discussion: Unit 8, Due Wednesday by
11:59 pm CT

Typhon documentation policy (e.g. diagnostics, therapeutics,
educational, consultation/collaboration)
2. Citations for each of the guidelines/evidence used to support the
elements of your Plan
3. Construct a narrative discussion that identifies how your Plan
