NSG 6210 Scientific Underpinnings for Evidence-Based Practice
Lecture: 4 Lab: 0 Practica: 0 Total Credits: 4
This course provides an overview of the evidence-based practice process to prepare the nurse leader as a consumer of scientific evidence for decision making in practice and leadership. This course builds on the student’s knowledge of research to critique and critically appraise research findings to enhance evidence-based nursing practice. Students will develop a practice question, conduct a literature search for best available evidence related to the question, and summarize the evidence related to the practice question. Research methods are discussed in the context of evaluation and grading of research evidence and application to practice. Ethical issues in research are discussed. Finding and critically appraising research summaries (i.e., systematic reviews, meta-analyses, meta-syntheses) and clinical practice guidelines are also included.
