clients
⩥ Clinical nursing research. Answer: research designed to guide nursing
practice
⩥ What is EBP?. Answer: EBP- evidence based practice. It uses the best
evidence in making patient care decisions
⩥ What is an example of users or consumers of nursing research?.
Answer: nurses who read research reports to keep up-to-date on findings
that may affect their practice
⩥ What is an example of a producer of nursing research?. Answer:
nurses who actively design nd undertaker studies
⩥ Even if you never conduct a study yourself, you may do one of the
five following:. Answer: 1. identify an idea for clinical inquiry
,2. assist in collecting research information
3. offer advice to clients about participating in a study
4. search for research evidence
5. discuss implications of a study in a journal club in your practice
setting, which involves meetings to discuss research articles
⩥ What year and where was the establishment of the first Center for
Nursing Research?. Answer: Established in 1979 and was located at the
McGill University. From there, nursing research was strengthened
largely in the 1980s
⩥ What year was EBP introduced?. Answer: 1990s
⩥ What is the CCNRI and what is their purpose?. Answer: The CCNRI
is the Canadian Consortium for Nursing Research and Innovation. The
purpose was to create a strong, unified voice to promote nursing

capacity in Canada
⩥ What is translational research?. Answer: research on how finding from
studies can best be translated into practice.
⩥ Systemic reviews are the cornerstone for what?. Answer: Evidence-
Based Practice
, ⩥ What are the 8 future directions for nursing research?. Answer: 1.
continued EBP
2. stronger evidence through confirmatory strategies
3. continued emphasis on systemic reviews
4. expanded local research in health care setting
5. expanded dissemination of research findings
6. increased focus on diversity issues and health disparities
7. clinical significance and patient-orientated research
8. inter-professional collaboration and health research
⩥ What are the sources of evidence for nursing practice?. Answer: 1.
tradition and authority (some traditional routines are ineffective, this is
considered the leader of EBP)
2. clinical experience, trial and error ( reliable source of knowledge, has
limitations as a source of evidence, nurses experience is too narrow,
tends to be disorganized and solutions may be idiosyncratic- may be
done in ones own way)
3. assembled information (has some useful information, but provides no
mechanism to actually guide improvements)
4. disciplined research (the best method of acquiring reliable knowledge
that humans have developed)
⩥ What is a paradigm?. Answer: a worldview, a general perspective to
