EBP test #1 ch. 1, 2, 3, 4
The nurse is designing a nursing clinical research study. Which research
question is most appropriate for this type of study?(Select all that apply.)
A.
What factors influence an individual's choice to enroll in online nursing
education?
B.
How do communication styles influence the nurse's perception of nurse
educators?
C.
How do environmental noise levels affect the client's pain perception
postanesthetic?
D.
Is there a relationship between acupressure and incidence of nausea in clients
who are receiving chemotherapy medications?
E.
What is the relationship between the duration of nurse-client interaction and
the client's level of satisfaction with nursing care?
C.
How do environmental noise levels affect the client's pain perception
postanesthesia?
D.
Is there a relationship between acupressure and incidence of nausea in clients who
are receiving chemotherapy medications?
E.
What is the relationship between the duration of nurse-client interaction and the
client's level of satisfaction with nursing care?
Rationale: Nursing research is a systematic and strict scientific process that tests
hypotheses about health-related conditions and nursing care; as an extension of
nursing research, nursing clinical research seeks answers that will ultimately improve
client care.
The nurse is delivering a presentation about evidence-based practice (EBP).
Which statement best reflects the nurse's correct understanding of EBP?
A.
"EBP incorporates clinical knowledge, expert opinion, or information resulting
from research."
B.
"EBP is the gathering of objective facts and information to advance knowledge
about a specific topic."
C.

"EBP uses a systematic and strict scientific process to test hypotheses about
health-related conditions and nursing care."
D.
"EBP involves combining quality research, clinical expertise, and client
preferences to achieve the best client outcomes."
A.
"EBP incorporates clinical knowledge, expert opinion, or information resulting from
research."
Rationale: Evidence-based practice (EBP) seeks to achieve optimal client outcomes
by combining the best evidence from the most current researchavailable, the nurse's
clinical expertise, and the client's preferences, includingneeds, values, and choices.
Research involves gathering objective facts and information to advance knowledge
about a specific topic. Nursing research is a systematic and strict scientific process
that tests hypotheses about health-related conditions and nursing care. Evidence
can be defined as clinical knowledge, expertopinion, or information resulting from
research.
The nurse is critically appraising a research study. Which statement is
reflective of an appraisal of thestudy's reliability?
A.
"Although the study was supposed to measure the client's wound healing, it
really measured the client's satisfaction with care."
B.
"The original study was repeated three times, but it did not produce consistent
results."
C.
"The study's results are not applicable to clinical practice."
D.
"The study's results are applicable to clinical practice."
B.
"The original study was repeated three times, but it did not produce consistent
results."
Rationale: Reliability is the study's ability to produce consistent results with each use.
Validity is the degree to which the study measured what it intended to measure.
Usefulness is reflective of the study's application to clinical practice.
Which response is an example of a background question? (Select all that
apply.)
A.
Why isn't long-acting insulin administered via the IV route?
B.
What is the pathophysiology of left ventricular heart failure?
C.
How does acupuncture compare with pain medication for treating chronic
knee pain?
D.
How does incentive spirometry help prevent collapse of the small airways in
the lungs?

E.
What is the link between healthcare providers' stethoscopes and healthcare-
acquired infections?
A.
Why isn't long-acting insulin administered via the IV route?
B.
What is the pathophysiology of left ventricular heart failure?
D.
How does incentive spirometry help prevent collapse of the small airways in the
lungs?
Rationale: Background questions are knowledgebased and seek more information
about a topic, such as medications or diseases. Answers to background questions
can be found in textbooks, drug guides, medical dictionaries, and other education
resources. Foreground questions are practice based and, compared with
background questions, they are narrower in scope. Foreground questions focus on a
specific clinical issue and their answers identify useful information about direct client
care that may guide the formulation of nursing interventions that improve client
outcomes.
A nurse researcheris designing a study intended to explore how certification
exam preparation courses affect nursing students' success rates in passing
the exam. Which element best reflects the nurse's use of a randomized control
trial (RCT) design?
A.
Compare graduate nurses who successfully passed the certification exam with
graduate nurses who did not pass the exam in order to determine whether or
not completing a certification exam preparation course was a variable that
contributed to test performance.
B.
Compare the exam performance of a control group of graduate nurses who did
not complete any certification exam preparation course with a group of
graduate nurses who completed a specific certification exam preparation
course prior to taking the exam.
C.
Interview five graduate nurses who completed a certification exam preparation
course and detail their experiences with the course and then identify the
number of graduate nurses who successfully completed the certification
exam.
D.
Examine a group of studies on graduate nurses who completed certification
exam preparation courses and then combine and analyze the results as if they
were from one large study.
B.
Compare the exam performance of a control group of graduate nurses who did not
complete any certification exam preparation course with a group of graduate nurses
who completed a specific certification exam preparation course prior to taking the
exam.
