MULTIPLE CHOICE gg
1. A nursing educator is explaining how the best clinical practices are
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
determined. Which statement best explains the purpose of evidence-based
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
practice?
gg
a. It ensures that all patients receive holistic care.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
b. It provides a definite reason for providing care in a specific manner.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
c. It prevents errors when care is being delivered.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
d. It guarantees that care delivered is based on research.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
ANS: B gg
Evidence-based practice is the use of the current best evidence in making patient care
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
decisions. It applies to all types of health care professionals. Currently there is no
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
method that can ensure that all patients receive holistic care, that all errors can be
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
prevented, or that a guarantee exists that care given is based on research.

2. Which question is a problem-focused trigger for initiating the evidence-based
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
practice method in nursing care?
gg gg gg gg gg
a. What is known about reduction of urinary tract infections in the older
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
adult with diabetes?
gg gg gg
b. How can chronic pain best be described when the patient is nonverbal?
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
c. How long can an IV catheter remain in place in a patient with obesity?
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
d. What measures can the nurse take to reduce the rising incidence of
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
urinary tract infections on the older adult care unit?
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
ANS: D gg
Evidence-based practice (EBP) questions tend to arise from two sources: recurrent
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
problems or new knowledge. In the correct option, the increase in urinary tract
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
infections indicates a trend or recurring problem in a specific group of patients.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
The other questions are general information questions, not based on what is
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
happening in a specific area or to a group of specific patients in an area or relating
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
to an observed trend.

3. What does the ―I‖ indicate in a ―PICO‖ question?
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
a. Intervention of interest gg gg
b. Incorporation of concepts gg gg
c. Implementation by nursing gg gg
d. Interest of personnel gg gg
ANS: A gg
The ―I‖ stands for intervention of interest, meaning what the nurse hopes to use in
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
practice and believes is worthwhile or valuable. This could be a treatment for a
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
specific type of wound or an approach on how to teach food preparation for a
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
patient with impaired sight.

4. Who will the clinical research nurse contact to search relevant databases in
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
preparation for an upcoming study?
gg gg gg gg gg
a. The physician whose patients may be involved in the study
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
b. The medical librarian gg gg
c. The nurse manager of the unit where the study will be conducted
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
d. The director of nursing of the facility
gg gg gg gg gg gg
ANS: B gg
The medical librarian is most knowledgeable regarding databases relevant to a study.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
The other individuals do not have the knowledge regarding relevant databases.

5. Which database contains summaries of clinical guidelines and their development?
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
a. MEDLINE
b. CINAHL
c. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews gg gg gg gg
d. The National Guideline Clearinghouse
gg gg gg
ANS: D gg
The National Guideline Clearinghouse is a database supported by the Agency
g g g g g g g g g g gg g g g g gg g g
for Healthcare Research and Quality. It contains summaries of clinical guidelines for
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
practice. MEDLINE is a database for studies in mediciNne, nursing, dentistry,
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
psychiatry, veterinary medicine, and
gg gg gg gg
allied health. CINAHL (Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature)
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg

includes completed reviews and protocols.

6. Which does the nurse researcher identify as the strongest type of research?
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
a. Randomized controlled trials gg gg
b. A qualitative study
gg gg
c. A descriptive study
gg gg
d. A case controlled study
gg gg gg
ANS: A gg
Individual randomized controlled trials are close to the top of the research pyramid.
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
Only systematic reviews and meta-analyses are higher. This type of study tests an
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
intervention against the usual standard of care. The other types of studies are useful
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
but do not give the same type of information as a randomized controlled trial
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
provides.
