Ebp Intervention

Developing education and evaluation tools are essential steps when implementing a proposed intervention or evidence-based practice (EBP). According to Marschall et al. (2014) educational tools provide the key stakeholders with the necessary awareness, knowledge, understanding, and how to effectively utilize proposed intervention to eliminate a problem or improve patient care. This in turn will increase the likelihood of competency, compliance, and a successful implementation (Marschall et al., 2014). Equally important are evaluation tools because they assess the effectiveness of the new intervention or EBP and then compares the outcomes to the previous practice. However, a variety of methods to evaluate the effectiveness of a the EBP or intervention …show more content…

One method that will be essential for this writer’s proposal of adding ADCs to the current standard central line care and maintenance bundle (CLCMB) is to obtain and measure CLABSI rates and CL days on each unit 6 months prior to and post ADC implementation because it will allow a baseline comparison and trend analysis (Marschall et al., 2014). Another method will be performing a pre and post ADC implementation audit CLCMB documentation compliance using the adult intensive care unit (ICU) paper flow-sheet and the electronic health record (EHR) for non-ICU adult acute care units. Currently daily visual CLCMB compliance audits are already performed; however, an updated form that includes the ADC intervention will be needed to track compliance post implementation. In addition, the data from 6 months prior to the initiation of the ADCs will be retrieved for comparison. A pretest will be given to all staff that work with CLs to establish a baseline of staff awareness, knowledge and understanding of CLABSIs as well as current components of the CMB for CLABSI prevention and proper documentation. This will also enable this writer to assess any knowledge deficits and additional education that will be required. Once a review of CLABSI prevention and ADC education has been completed, a post test will be administered for comparison with the pretest. All of these methods will be crucial for evaluating the efficacy of the

The Joint Commission’s tracer methodology is used to ensure compliance standards are met, as well as to “trace” and document the level of care provided to patients in order to make improvements to the facility’s health care delivery system. Patients requiring services that utilize the entire continuum of care spectrum are selected in an effort to gather sufficient information needed to identify areas with potential risks and safety concerns. As the patients’ course of care progresses across the system, Joint Commission surveyors evaluate each department 's policy and procedure on data management, infection control and medication management process. Health information management is impacted by the “tracer methodology” because HIM must ensure

This will be achieved through rich qualitative input and international consensus-building that will complement coordinated efforts in academic medicine with an end goal of improving health provider wellbeing and patient outcomes. This tool will be refined through stakeholder engagement with key individuals and groups who will be involved throughout the process. Through undertaking a rigorous design and development process, we expect that the tool will be well-received and quickly transition the adoption phase given that we will be working with stakeholders throughout the process. This proposal focuses on the development of the evaluation tool and implementation tool. The tool will initially be deployed in clinical settings that have already been identified as having opportunities for improvement.

Group 1 argued that Evidence Based Practices (EBP’s) limit recovery-oriented services, stating that current EBP’s do not “incorporate a recovery-oriented, person-centered focus” in terms of treatment goals. This is actually not the true intent of EBP’s. As one expert explains: “a progressive, inclusive approach to EBP should combine the evidence provided in the manual and the practitioner’s knowledge…as well as the client’s culture, individual interests, and needs” (Surface, 2009). Group 1 also says that EBP’s don’t consider unconventional services that can sometimes help people with SMI.

Evidence based practices are important because it aims to provide the most effective care that is available, with the aim of improving patient outcomes. Patients expect to receive the most effective care based on the best available evidence. Evidence is the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid. Evidence based practice is the integration of clinical expertise, patient values, and the best research evidence into the decision-making process for patient care. You find out exactly why this person is using or doing what they are doing and use it to figure out what kind of treatment you can use for them.

Many professionals regard EBP as the basis for nursing practices (Irwin, Bergman, & Richards, 2013). My clinical question is -In hospitals, how well do nurses integrate EBP into clinical practice? Studies have proved there are gaps when integrating EBP into the clinical settings (as cited in Irwin et al., 2013). For example, the Norwegian Radium Hospital leaders questioned the gap between newly graduated nurses and senior staff nurses when it came to EBP practice (Bruheim, Woods, Smeland, & Nortvedt, 2013). The newly graduated nurses were solid in research skills as those used in EBP; however, the senior staff nurses depended more on physician directed care (Bruheim et al., 2013).

Evidence-based nursing practice help to improve individual bedside practice because nurses work in the ward based on knowledge they obtained from previous research. It can also answer problematic clinical practice issue since it aim at solving problem, it improves nurse’s quality and reduces variations in care.

According to University College London (UCL) (2011), critical evaluation helps to filter necessary information, identify studies that are applicable clinically and also for continuous professional development (CPD). However, evaluation of an article, is assessed using pre-designed instrument that encourages a more thorough and systematic method; it is designed for different study design and ask specific questions as pertain validity of the study such as: if the study has given an answer to the research question and has met its set aims and objectives, the methodology, analysis and interpretation of findings (Harder, 2014; Burls, 2009; Whiffin and Hasselder, 2013). It could be said that a good critical assessment plays a vital in evidence-based practice. Therefore, a critical appraisal skills programme (CASP, 2009) checklist will be used to evaluate the selected paper for this

Giving care to a patient is not a straightforward process because a patient is made up of advanced systems. Symptoms and the severity of a disease process are dependent on a particular patient, and it may not always be uniform from patient to patient. Because of this, nurses must be able to use their knowledge appropriately to help a patient. Nurses use techniques, such as Evidence Based Practice, in order to integrate new and advanced knowledge into their patient care (Canada, 2016). By exercising evidence based practice, nurses effectively seek knowledge, take experience from past situations, and apply this intelligence to best give patient care (Canada, 2016).
