Evidence-Based Practice Dynamic Capabilities Discussion

Evidence-Based Practice Dynamic Capabilities Discussion

Evidence-based practice (EBP) has proven to better patients’ quality of life within the health setting. In my case, I will use the knowledge acquired from EBP to change a policy that has been standard for decades. Specifically, I will use it to promote a more collaborative approach to care where I’ll influence the nurses within my setting to debate and critically think about the latest evidence before implementing it.

Within this phase, I and the other nurses will conduct self-regulatory, objective, and interpretive analysis of the current EBP. Upon proving the substantiality and validity of its findings, we will make a decision that improves the patient’s quality of life (Huo et al., 2022)Evidence-Based Practice Dynamic Capabilities Discussion. For instance, concerning the guideline on SIDS policy, I will avail and adopt a revised guideline that has been influenced by recent EBP research. Since recent research confirms that babies should sleep on their back rather than stomach to avoid sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), we will change this policy and adopt the policy by encouraging mothers to lay their babies on back. As such, we will improve quality of life.

Understandably, research knowledge gained from this course will support my role in practice as a nursing professional in the following way. First, it will help me acknowledge whether the new approach to care or treatment is more effective than the current standard (Huo et al., 2022). For instance, to better the lives of patients experiencing delirium within my healthcare setting, I will consider diagnosing them using the current research that encourages the use of a 4AT assessment tool. 4AT tool recognizes delirium quickly and accurately and has shown positive score rates in both clinical and research settings (MacLullich et al., 2022)Evidence-Based Practice Dynamic Capabilities Discussion.

Week 6: Tying it All Together
Once a nursing researcher or nursing professional has conducted analyses on their collected data, what can they conclude about their research and research question?
The last and final phase of the research process involves drawing conclusions about research findings as well as tying them into meaningful solutions for clinical nursing practice. How might a nursing researcher or nursing professional relate their research findings to solutions for improved quality of care and patient safety? How might drawing certain conclusions from research findings impact your health care setting?
This week, you will examine two content areas.
Part I: Drawing Conclusions About Research Findings and Their Implications for Clinical Practice
Part I focuses on the last phase of the research process, namely drawing conclusions about the findings and discussing their implications for clinical practice. You will examine how the findings contribute to clinical practice and how the findings might add to new knowledge and the existing literature on a topic. You will consider how the characteristics of well-written conclusions and implications, including consideration of the study’s limitations, recommendations for future research, and variation in the quality of presenting these areas in published research may impact nursing practice. Evidence-Based Practice Dynamic Capabilities Discussion
Part II: The Value of Research in Evidence-Based Practice and Translational Science
Part II focuses on what has been explored about the value of quantitative and qualitative research in evidence-based practice and translational science in nursing.
Learning Objectives
Students will:
• Evaluate how evidence-based practice will improve patient quality and safety
• Evaluate the importance of the interpretation, conclusion, and clinical implications of clinical research articles in evidence-based practice
• Evaluate effectiveness of interventions on decreasing medication errors in health care settings

Discussion: Use of Research in Clinical Practice
Throughout this course, you have examined and considered how the research process contributes to the field of clinical nursing practice. More than just an exercise in developing a research question, searching the literature to guide future research, and performing actual data collection/data analysis, the conclusions you draw from your research findings are useful in helping to develop and enact effective clinical practice. In essence, the process of conducting research contributes to positive social change in that the solutions that you might propose as a nurse researcher and professional will likely impact quality of care and patient safety.
For this Discussion, read the book chapter by Titler (2008) presented in this week’s resources that describes evidence-based practice and translational science, as well as the kind of research needed for both. Then, reflect on how the knowledge you gained about research will support your effort as a nursing professional to improve patient quality and safety. Evidence-Based Practice Dynamic Capabilities Discussion
By Day 3
Describe how you will use evidence-based practice to improve patient quality and safety in your health care setting. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain how the knowledge gained about research in this course will support your role in practice as a nursing professional. Then, describe how you will use evidence-based practice to improve patient quality and safety. Be sure to include in your Discussion any unanswered questions that need to be considered by your classmates and/or Instructor.
Note: Post a three paragraph (at least 350 words) response directly in the response text box rather than as an attachment. Be sure to use evidence, in-text citations, and essay-level writing skills, including the use of transitional material and organizational frames. Use the writing resources to develop your post.
