EBP Identification of Clinical Question: What type of safety measures need to be in place to prevent falls in the hospital setting?

Use the assigned Topic Materials “CLC: EBP Research Table” and “Assignment: Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Project Student Guide.” You will use the “CLC: EBP Research Table” to consolidate and present the findings. Pay attention to the prompts for each column.

Solid academic writing is expected and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines.

1. Collaborative Learning Community: EBP Literature Search/Appraisal of Evidence:

The outline below includes the key deliverables for the CLC group project.

The project should focus on the problem of falls prevention related to nursing practice. Do a quick survey of the literature to be sure that there is sufficient evidence available.

In order to develop a guideline/protocol, you will need credible resources. The course readings include all of the information needed to complete this project. Chapters 1 and 2 of the Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice textbook provide the necessary information regarding EBP and how to find evidence. In Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice, the section “Resources for Evidence-Based Practice” in Chapter 2 will be very valuable. Chapter 5 provides strategies for locating and assessing credible information. The sooner you read these chapters with the project in mind, the easier it will be to complete the project.

Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice (10th Edition) https://www.gcumedia.com/digital-resources/wolters-kluwer/2016/nursing-research_generating-and-assessing-evidence-for-nursing-practice_ebook_10e.php

Refer to Figure 2.2 in the Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice textbook for the EBP process model you will use to complete this project.

Use the evidence hierarchy pyramid provided in Figure 2.1 in the Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice textbook as a guide for the levels of evidence in your reference list.

Locate case studies, relevant clinical articles written by experts, research articles, evidence-based guidelines, protocols, and theories that may guide the identification of appropriate solutions. Note: A true proposal would require a comprehensive review of the literature and inclusion of all relevant works.

Appraise the evidence using the guidelines provided in the Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice textbook. Use these guidelines to discard references that are untrustworthy or irrelevant. Box 2.2 can help with this decision-making process. Chapter 5 provides guidance on how to synthesize the article findings.

Use the assigned Topic Material, “CLC EBP Research Table,” to consolidate and present the findings. The reference articles to be limited to 3, but not less than 2. Use separate CLC EBP Research Table for each referenced article.
