Exam 20: Developing an Evidence-Based Practice

The nurse researcher is reading theoretical and clinical articles to have a broad view of the topic and related concepts before reviewing existing EBP guidelines. The nurse researcher begins the process of reading the articles by doing what?

Number the steps of evaluation for evidence-based projects in the order that they occur. Steps of Evaluation for Evidence-Based Projects 1. Identify process and outcome variables of interest. 2. Determine methods and frequency of data collection. 3. Determine baseline and follow-up sample sizes. 4. Design data collection forms. 5. Establish content validity of data collection forms. 6. Train data collectors. 7. Assess interrater reliability of data collectors. 8. Collect data at specified intervals. 9. Provide “on-site” feedback to staff regarding the progress in achieving the practice change. 10. Provide feedback of analyzed data to staff. 11. Use data to assist staff in modifying or integrating the evidence-based practice change -___ provide "on-site" feedback to staff regarding the progress in achieving the practice change
