MULTIPLE CHOICE b




1. Evidence-based practice is a problem-solving approach to making decisions about patient care
b b b b b b b b b b b


that is grounded in:
b b b b


a. the latest information found in textbooks.
b b b b b


b. systematically conducted research studies. b b b


c. tradition in clinical practice. b b b


d. quality improvement and risk-management data.
b b b b




ANSWER: B b


The best evidence comes from well-designed, systematically conducted research studies
b b b b b b b b b


described in scientific journals. Portions of a textbook often become outdated by the time it is
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


published. Many health care settings do not have a process to help staff adopt new evidence in
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


practice, and nurses in practice settings lack easy access to risk-management data, relying
b b b b b b b b b b b b b


instead on tradition or convenience. Some sources of evidence do not originate from research.
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


These include quality improvement and risk-management data; infection control data;
b b b b b b b b b b


retrospective or concurrent chart reviews; and clinicians‘ expertise. Although
b b b b b b b b b


non–research-based evidence is often very valuable, it is important that you learn to rely more b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


on research-based evidence.

2. When evidence-based practice is used, patient care will be:
b b b b b b b b


a. standardized for all. b b


b. unhampered by patient culture. b b b


c. variable according to the situation. b b b b


d. safe from the hazards of critical thinking.
b b b b b b




ANSWER: C b


Using your clinical expertise and considering patients‘ cultures, values, and preferences
b b b b b b b b b b


ensures that you will apply available evidence in practice ethically and appropriately. Even
b b b b b b b b b b b b b


when you use the best evidence available, application and outcomes will differ; as a nurse,

you will develop critical thinking skills to determine whether evidence is relevant and

ANSWER: C b


C = Comparison of interest. What standard of care or current intervention do you usually use
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


now in practice?
b b b


P = Patient population of interest. Identify your patient by age, gender, ethnicity, disease, or
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


health problem.
b b


I = Intervention of interest. What intervention (e.g., treatment, diagnostic test, and prognostic
b b b b b b b b b b b b


factor) do you think is worthwhile to use in practice?
b b b b b b b b b b


O = Outcome. What result (e.g., change in patient‘s behavior, physical finding, and change in
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


patient‘s perception) do you wish to achieve or observe as the result of an intervention?

4. A well-developed PICOT question helps the nurse:
b b b b b b


a. search for evidence. b b


b. include all five elements of the sequence. b b b b b b


c. find as many articles as possible in a literature search.
b b b b b b b b b


d. accept standard clinical routines. b b b




ANSWER: A b


The more focused a question that you ask is, the easier it is to search for evidence in the
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


scientific literature. A well-designed PICOT question does not have to include all five
b b b b b b b b b b b b b


elements, nor does it have to follow the PICOT sequence. Do not be satisfied with clinical
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b


routines. Always question and use critical thinking to consider better ways to provide patient

care.

situation. Utilizing which of the following resources would be the quickest way to review
