NCM 111 BY TONS and MADS WEEK 1: Aug. 3-9, 2023 OVERVIEW OF NURSING RESEARCH https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok0TIZDTlzs Book: Chapter 1 Page 3 RESEARCH ● Systematic inquiry that uses disciplined methods to answer questions and solve problems. ● Ultimate goal: develop, refine & expand body of knowledge. ● Associated w/ theory development ● Systematic, objective process of analyzing phenomena of importance to nursing ● Scientific process that validates & refines existing knowledge & generates new knowledge that directly & indirectly influences clinical nursing practice ● Formal, rigorous & intensive process used for solutions to nursing problems or discover & interpret new facts & trends in clinical practice, nursing education or nursing administration ● Rigorous guidelines to produce unbiased, trustworthy answers to questions about nursing practice ● Systematic collection & analysis of data to illuminate, describe or explain new facts & relationships; attempt to find solutions to problems ● Testing of knowledge that can be used to guide nursing practice (NCNR)- An honest, scientific investigation undertaken for purpose of discovering new facts w/c will contribute to body of knowledge & can lead to effective solution to existing problems. ● Involves careful critical thinking to revise or revalidate accepted conclusions & previously held concepts or to establish generalizations or principles. ● Purpose of National Center for Nursing Research (NCNR): promote and financially support research projects and training relating to patient care ● Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM): promulgated the view that research findings were far superior to the opinions of authorities as a basis for clinical decisions, constituted a profound shift for medical education and practice, and has had a major effect on all healthcare professions. ● Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ): federal agency, charged with supporting designed to improve quality of healthcare, reduce health costs, and enhance patient safety, and plays pivotal role in expansion of EBP NURSING RESEARCH ● Research designed to guide nursing practice and to improve the health and quality of life of nurses’ clients. ● Scientific inquiry on problems and issues related to nursing practice. ● Effective nursing care in a complex healthcare system requires knowledge, skills, the right attitude and expertise needed in decision making and in repertoire of tasks on which human life depends. ● Nurses are performing clinical responsibilities at time with nursing profession and larger healthcare systems require an extraordinary range of skills and talents. ● Nurses are expected to deliver competent high quality care in a compassionate but cost effective manner to accomplish these diverse goals. ● Nurses continually need to access, evaluate new information and incorporate it into clinical decision making. ● In today's world nurses must become lifelong learners (cpd units) to earn capable of reflecting on evaluating and modifying clinical practice based on emerging knowledge from systematic nursing and healthcare research. ● Nurses are increasingly engaged in disciplined studies that benefit the profession and its clients. ● Systematic inquiry is designed to develop trustworthy evidence about issues of importance to the nursing profession including nursing practice, nursing education, nursing administration, and nursing informatics. ● A need to engage in clinical nursing research CLINICAL NURSING RESEARCH ●Research designed to guide nursing practice & to improve the health & quality of life of nurses’ clients. ●Typically begins with questions stemming from practice-related problems RESEARCH IN NURSING ●All disciplines including nursing depend on scientific investigation to enrich pool of knowledge, deepen context, and improve our nursing practice. ●Nursing emerged as a profession when nurses started using systematic, orderly, and objective methods of seeking information derived from research - nursing uses EBP. We do not just follow things that are considered done traditionally without any evidence of research. ●Goal of nursing or nursing science: strengthen body of abstract knowledge from continuous scientific researches and logical analysis capable of being translated to nursing practice. ●Nursing research serves the need of nurses for direction in helping solve today's problems in sustaining human life in face of technological changes that threaten life. ●Nurses must have access to and understanding of patients feelings when contemplating on nursing care interventions to alleviate man's health problems ●Research problems may arise from altruistic desire to improve nursing practice through more effective ways of helping patients recover from illness or cope with health problems ○ For example: nurses might be concerned with best approach in teaching client with diabetes mellitus who is expected to have other actual or potential health problems such as hypertension, retinopathy, problems with nerve damage in extremities ○ Continuous care should be done in order for patient to cope with this problem. ●Scientific research - concerned with the best approach in teaching people how to promote health and prevent illness, ○ Very specific to our core in nursing, we need to teach patients rather health promotive behavior. The Consumer–Producer Continuum in Nursing Research ● One end of the continuum: consumers of nursing research, read research reports or research summaries for relevant findings that might affect their practice. ● Other end: producers of nursing research: nurses who actively participate in generating evidence by doing research. Current and Future Directions for Nursing Research Among the trends we foresee for the early 21st century: 1. Continued focus on EBP. Encouragement for nurses to engage in evidence-based patient care continues. In turn, improvements will be needed in the quality of studies and skills in locating, understanding, critiquing, and using relevant study results. Translational research— how findings from studies can best be translated into nursing practice. 2. Development of stronger evidence base through multiple, confirmatory strategies. Strong research 1
