MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. WHICH BEST DESCRIBES EVIDENCE-BASED-PRACTICE (EBP)?
A.A COMBINATION OF BEST RESEARCH EVIDENCE, CLINICAL EXPERTISE, AND THE NEEDS AND
VALUES OF PATIENTS.
B. A DETERMINATION OF THE FACTORS NECESSARY TO CONTROL PATIENT RESPONSES TO
CARE.
C. THE DEVELOPMENT OF POPULATION CARE GUIDELINES APPLICABLE TO ALL PATIENTS.
D. THE UTILIZATION OF QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE STUDIES TO ENHANCE PATIENT
OUTCOMES.
ANS: A
FEEDBACK
A .EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE EVOLVES FROM THE INTEGRATION OF THE BEST RESEARCH EVIDENCE
WITH CLINICAL EXPERTISE AND PATIENT NEEDS AND VALUES.
B. STUDIES THAT ATTEMPT TO FIND DETERMINANTS OF PATIENT OUTCOMES ARE GENERALLY
EXPERIMENTAL OR QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL. THEY MAY BE USED TO GUIDE EBP BUT DO NOT
COMPLETELY DEFINE IT.
C. EBP IS A COMBINATION OF GUIDELINES AND SPECIFIC PATIENT NEEDS AND VALUES.
D. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE STUDIES APPLIED TO THE EVALUATION OF PATIENT OUTCOMES
ARE PART OF EBP BUT DO NOT COMPLETELY DEFINE EBP.
PTS: 1 DIF: COGNITIVE LEVEL: REMEMBERING (KNOWLEDGE) REF: MCS: 3
THE NURSE IS COLLECTING DATA ABOUT THE SLEEP PATTERNS OF BREASTFED BABIES AS PART OF A
LARGER RESEARCH STUDY. WHICH RESEARCH METHOD WILL THE NURSE USE WHEN COLLECTING
DATA FOR THIS STUDY?
A. CONTROL
B. DESCRIPTION
C. EXPLANATION
D .PREDICTION
, ANS: B
FEEDBACK
A .CONTROL CAN BE DESCRIBED AS THE ABILITY TO WRITE A PRESCRIPTION TO PRODUCE THE
DESIRED OUTCOME.
B. DESCRIPTION INVOLVES IDENTIFYING AND UNDERSTANDING THE NATURE OF NURSING
PHENOMENA AND THE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG THESE PHENOMENA.
C. EXPLANATION CLARIFIES THE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG PHENOMENA AND IDENTIFIES WHY
CERTAIN EVENTS OCCUR.
D .THROUGH PREDICTION, THE PROBABILITY OF A SPECIFIC OUTCOME CAN BE ESTIMATED IN A
GIVEN SITUATION.
PTS: 1 DIF: COGNITIVE LEVEL: UNDERSTANDING (COMPREHENSION) REF: MCS: 6
THE NURSE IS PARTICIPATING IN A STUDY AND IS COLLECTING DATA IDENTIFYING THE NUMBER OF
OBESE ADULTS WHOSE PARENTS WERE ALSO OBESE OR OVERWEIGHT. WHICH RESEARCH METHOD
IS BEING USED IN THIS STUDY?
A.CONTROL
B.DESCRIPTION
C.EXPLANATION
D.PREDICTION
ANS: D
FEEDBACK
A ,CONTROL INDICATES THE ABILITY TO USE A PRESCRIBED INTERVENTION TO PRODUCE A DESIRED
OUTCOME.
B, DESCRIPTION INVOLVES IDENTIFYING AND UNDERSTANDING THE NATURE OF NURSING
PHENOMENA AND THE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG THESE PHENOMENA.
C, EXPLANATION CLARIFIES THE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG PHENOMENA AND IDENTIFIES WHY
CERTAIN EVENTS OCCUR.
D , THROUGH PREDICTION THE PROBABILITY OF A SPECIFIC OUTCOME CAN BE ESTIMATED IN A
GIVEN SITUATION. BY KNOWING THE PERCENTAGE OF PARENTS OF OBESE ADULTS WHO WERE
OBESE, THE PROBABILITY OF PREDICTING THIS MAY BE CALCULATED.
