WGU C790 FOUNDATIONS IN NURSING
INFORMATICS UPDATED ACTUAL
QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED ANSWERS
●● STEEEP principles
Answer: The Institute of Medicine (IOM) expert panel issued
recommendations for urgent action to redesign healthcare so that it is
safe, timely, effective, efficient, equitable, and patient-centered
●● (S) in STEEEP
Answer: Safe-Avoid injuries to patients from the care that is intended to
help them.
●● (T) in STEEEP
Answer: Timely-Reduce waits and sometimes harmful delays for both
those who receive and those who give care.
●● (E) in STEEEP
Answer: Effective-Provide services based on scientific knowledge to all
who could benefit, and refrain from providing services to those not
likely to benefit.
●● (E) in STEEEP
,Answer: Efficient-Avoid waste, including waste of equipment, supplies,
ideas, and energy.
●● (E) in STEEEP
Answer: Equitable-Provide care that does not vary in quality because of
personal characteristics such as gender, ethnicity, geographic location,
and socioeconomic status.
●● (P) in STEEEP
Answer: Patient-centered Provide care that is respectful of and
responsive to individual patient preferences, needs, and values, and
ensure that patient values guide all clinical decisions.
●● ACE Star Model of Knowledge Transformation
Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through Close Collaboration
(ARCC)
Model of Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing and Healthcare
Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Model and Guidelines
Iowa Model of Evidence-Based Practice
Stetler Model of Research Utilization
Answer: FOCUS: EBP, research use, and knowledge transformation
processes
,DESCRIPTION: Direct a systematic approach to synthesizing
knowledge and transforming research findings to improve patient
outcomes and the quality of care
Address both individual practitioners and healthcare organizations Focus
on increasing the meaningfulness and utility of research findings in
clinical decision making
●● Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services
(PARiHS)
Vratny and Shriver Model for Evidence-Based Practice Pettigrew and
Whipp Model of Strategic Change
Outcomes-Focused Knowledge Translation
Determinants of Effective Implementation of Complex Innovations in
Organizations
Ottawa Model of Research Use
Answer: FOCUS: Strategic and organizational change theory to promote
uptake and adoption of new knowledge
DESCRIPTION:Trace mechanisms by which individual, small group,
and organizational contexts affect diffusion, uptake, and adoption of new
knowledge and innovation
Premise is that interventions, outcomes evaluations, and feedback are
important methods to promote practice change
, ●● Collaborative Model for Knowledge Translation between Research
and Practice Settings
Framework for Translating Evidence into Action
Knowledge Transfer and Exchange
Canadian Institutes of Health Research Knowledge Translation within
the Research Cycle Model or Knowledge Action Model
Interactive Systems Framework for Dissemination and Implementation
Answer: FOCUS: Knowledge exchange and synthesis for application
and inquiry
DESCRIPTION: Structure ongoing interactions among practitioners,
researchers, policy-makers, and consumers to facilitate the generation of
clinically relevant knowledge and the application of knowledge in
practice
All parties are engaged in bidirectional collaboration across the
translation continuum
●● Knowledge Transformation
Answer: (Ace Star Model)
is defined as the conversion of research findings from discovery of
primary research results, through a series of stages and forms, to
increase the relevance, accessibility, and utility of evidence at the point
of care to improve healthcare and health outcomes by way of evidence-
based care.
