1. The tradition at a hospital dictates that oral temperatures are included in
every set of client vital signs, regardless of diagnosis or acuity. Which phenom-
ena is most likely an example of this statement?: Practice that lacks evidence to support its
application
2. A nurse has observed that reorienting demented clients as frequently as
possible tends to minimize the clients' level of agitation in the evening. The
nurse has shared this observation with a colleague, who is skeptical, stating,
It's best to stick to evidence-based practice. Which is the best response to this
colleague?: EBP can include clinicians' personal expertise.
3. A nurse manager is preparing to implement EBP on the unit. Which factor
can the nurse prioritize as the most important rationale for the consistent
implementation of EBP?: Improves client outcomes.
4. A group of nurses are implementing a new, evidence-based infection control
regimen on the unit. Which action should the nurses prioritize as the final
step?: Sharing their experience with other healthcare professionals
5. A nurse is preparing a clinical question to conduct research. Which example
best represents the "P" component of the question?: Individuals who require peritoneal
dialysis
6. A pediatric nurse provides care for many children who present to the emer-
gency department (ED) with signs and symptoms of asthma. Which back-
ground question can the nurse best utilize in the process of providing EBP?: Are
nebulizers provided to clients in the ED more often than
7. A nurse is formulating a research question and determines a comparison
component would not be necessary with which clinical question?: A study on the
perceived meaning of hope among palliative clients
8. A nurse is constructing a clinical question using the PICOT format. Which
example best illustrates the "I" component?: Decreasing occupational exposure to airborne
silicon dust
9. The nurse is encouraging the use of EBP, but it is a slow process to convince
the other staff. Which are potential barriers to implementing EBP? Select all
that apply.: - Everything I find is useless.
- The computers are always in use.

- There is not enough time in the day.

eral intravenous sites. How should the findings of this article best be translated
into practice?: The nurses should search for further evidence before changing unit practices.
14. A nurse educator is determined to assist the staff nurses utilize current prac-
tices on the unit. Which action should the educator prioritize when encouraging
the staff nurses to utilize EBP?: Stay current with published evidence that has been critically appraised

the project to achieve high quality. Which criteria will help ensure a high-quality
result? Select all that apply.: - The study was designed to minimize biases
- The selection process will target the best participants for the project.
16. A nurse is preparing a research proposal in an effort to answer a clinical
question. Which measure will most likely reduce the potential for bias in the
study?: Randomly assigning the participants to groups
17. A nurse has deduced a need to understand the ways in which women
with fibromyalgia adjust their lifestyles to accommodate the effects of their
