Chapter 12
Evidence-Based Practice and Nursing TheorySlide2
Overview of Evidence-Based Practice
Evidence-based practice (EBP) was introduced in the 1970s by Dr. Archie Cochrane.
Dr. Cochrane focused on critical review of research (emphasis on RCTs) to improve medical practice.
Application in nursing has been delayed but has been growing over the past 10 years.Slide3
Overview of Evidence-Based Practice—(cont.)
EBP is based on the premise that health professionals should not base practice on tradition and belief but on information grounded in research.
EBP is not synonymous with research.
Research focuses on discovery.
EBP focuses on application.Slide4
Overview of Evidence-Based Practice—(
cont.)
EBP involves:
Identifying a clinical problem
Searching the literature and critically evaluating research evidence
D
etermining appropriate interventions
EBP integrates research, theory, and practice.Slide5
Evidence-Based Practice
EBP is “the conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of theory-derived, research-based information in making decisions about care delivery . . . in consideration of individual needs and preferences”
Key concepts of EBP
Best evidence
Expertise
Patient values
Careful review of research findings according to guidelines.
De-emphasizes ritual, isolated, and unsystematic clinical experiences, options, and tradition as basis for practiceSlide6
Question
Which of the following is NOT considered to be a key concept of EBP?
Best evidence
Patient values
Provider expertise
Traditional practicesSlide7
Answer
D.
Traditional practices
Rationale: EBP de-emphasizes ritual, unsupported practices, and tradition and focuses on research-supported interventions that considers patients’ desires and needs and provider expertise. Slide8
Evidence-Based Nursing
Some sources for EBP information/guidelines
Cochrane Collaboration/Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews—network that helps health care providers make informed decisions about health care
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)—maintains database of evidence-based clinical practice guidelinesSlide9
Evidence-Based Nursing—(
cont.)
Concerns
T
oo much focus on EBP could result in “cookbook care” and loss of “art” of nursing.
L
essening of attention to holistic care
Health care reimbursement might drift exclusively to interventions substantiated by “evidence.”
Not all health care practices can or should be based on science per se (What about “care”?).
Consensus agreement that EBP in nursing should consider all types of evidence (not just RCTs), as well as clinical experience, patient experiences and desires, and relevant local/organizational influences.Slide10
Practice-Based Evidence
PBE is a relatively new concept in nursing and health care.
Based on the observation that many interventions have limited formal research support
PBE recognizes the importance of the environment in determining practice
recommendations.
Premise of PBE is that large databases should be reviewed or “mined” to gather data on quality and effectiveness.Slide11
Practice-Based Evidence—(
cont.)
PBE seeks to determine what works best for which patients, under what circumstances, and at what costs.
More comprehensive picture than RCTs
Sources include:
Benchmarking data
Clinical expertise
Cost-effective analyses
Infection control data
Medical record data
National standards of care
Quality improvement data
Patient and family preferencesSlide12
Relationships
among practice, theory, research, and the PBE/ EBP cycle.

Theory and Evidence-Based Practice
More awareness of EBP has renewed appreciation for linkages among research, theory, and practice.
Research and clinical data provide evidence for EBP and/or PBE and can generate practice guidelines and/or situation-specific theories.
Preference for term “theory-guided, evidence-based practice”
Slide14
Models for Evidence-Based Practice
For some EBP models, the goal is to create or establish EBP protocols, procedures, or guidelines.
Some EBP models focus on implementation of EBP in the setting or institution.Slide15
Models for Evidence-Based Practice—(
cont.)
Most commonly used and described in nursing literature are:
Academic Center for Evidence-Based Practice Star Model (ACE Star Model) (Stevens, 2004)
Advancing Research and Clinical Practice Through Close Collaboration (ARCC Model) (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2011)
Iowa Model (Titler et al., 2001)
Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Model (JHNEBP) (Newhouse et al., 2007)
Stetler Model of Evidence-Based Practice (Stetler, 2001)Slide16
Evidence-Based Practice Models—ACE Star Model
Developed by faculty at University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio
Depicted by five points of sequential knowledge transformation
Discovery research
Evidence summary
Translation to guidelines
Practice integration
Process and outcome evaluationSlide17

ACE Star Model: Knowledge transformation

. Academic Center for Evidence-Based Practice. Available at http://www.acestar.uthscsa.edu/acestar-model.asp) Slide18
Evidence-Based Practice Models—ACE Star Model—(
cont.)
Knowledge transformation (KT) consists of eight premises.
KT is necessary prior to using research for clinical decision making.
KT is derived from multiple sources (e.g., research, experience, authority).
Research process is the most stable source of knowledge.
Evidence can be classified by strength of evidence based on rigor.Slide19
Evidence-Based Practice Models—ACE Star Model—(
cont.)
Knowledge transformation (KT) consists of eight premises—(cont.)
As research is converted through a system of steps, other knowledge is created.
The form in which knowledge exists can be referenced to its use.
The form of knowledge determines its usability.
KT takes place through steps (summarization, translation, application, integration, and evaluation).Slide20
Evidence-Based Practice Models—ACE Star Model
—(cont.)
ACE Star Model has been shown useful in teaching the process of research evidence.

Slide21
Evidence-Based Practice Models—ARCC Model
The Advancing Research and Clinical Practice Through Close Collaboration (ARCC) Model was developed to advance and sustain EBP (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2002).
Basis in control theory and cognitive behavioral theories
A
ppropriate in clinical practice—particularly acute careSlide22
Evidence-Based Practice Models—ARCC Model—(
cont.)
Central constructs of the ARCC Model
Assessment of organizational culture and readiness for EBP
Identification of strengths and barriers to EBP
Development and use of EBP mentors
EBP implementation
Outcome evaluation (providers’ satisfaction, cohesion, intent to leave, turnover, improved patient outcomes, hospital costs)Slide23
Evidence-Based Models—ARCC Model—(
cont.)
Several scales have been developed to measure implementation of EBP using the ARCC Model.
Among them are scales to measure organizational readiness and EBP beliefs.
Considerable amount of research support for the ARCC modelSlide24
Evidence-Based Practice Models—Iowa Model of EBP to Promote Quality Care
The Iowa Model of EBP was developed in the 1990s.
Intent to promote quality care through research utilization
It was developed to provide guidance for nurses in making decisions about practice.Slide25
Question
Tell whether the following statement is true or false:
The rationale for development of the Iowa Model of EBP was to manage the costs of health care.Slide26
Answer
False
The Iowa Model for EBP was developed to promote quality nursing care through incorporation of research into practice.Slide27
Evidence-Based Practice Models—Iowa Model of EBP to Promote Quality Care—(
cont.)
Organized into starting points, decision points, and feedback loops
Starting points are problem-focused triggers or knowledge-focused triggers
Decision points:
I
s the topic a priority?
I
s there sufficient research base?
I
s change appropriate for adoption in practice?
There are numerous feedback loops based on the model.
After implementation of practice change, monitor and analyze the structure, process, and outcome data; then disseminate results. Slide28

Evidence-Based Practice—Summary
EBP has become one of the key tenets of quality nursing care.
In nursing, it is critical that EBP go beyond research and be theory based.
Growing attention to the concept of PBE has renewed attention to the critical role of theory in excellent nursing practice.
