02 May The State of the Science in Practice
The State of the Science in Practice
The phrase evidence-based practice may be most often thought of as a clinical reference; however, research evidence is applicable in every specialty area. What types of research evidence support your work environment? How does research evidence inform your practice?
Now, how current do you think the science is that underlies your practice? How current is the evidence that supports your specialty practice guidelines?
To prepare:
§ Bring to mind an issue related to your practice. You may use the issue you are exploring for your EBP Project, or another current issue in your specialty area.
§ If possible, examine practices and/or practice guidelines established to address your selected issue and determine how current the evidence is that supports them.
§ Using the Walden Library, locate recently published articles that discuss research translated into evidence that applies to your selected practice issue. If you are unable to locate current articles (within the last five years), use the Internet to find evidence-based practice articles on this topic.
Consider the following questions:
§ How current is the science that supported the practice or practice guidelines?
§ What new evidence has emerged since the practice guidelines were crafted and adopted?
By tomorrow 09/11/18 12 by 10 pm, write a minimum of 550 words in APA format with at least 3 scholarly references less than 5 years old. Include the level one header as numbered below:
Post a cohesive scholarly response that addresses the following:
1) Discuss the state of the scientific underpinnings that relate to your selected issue. (see my PIICOT question at the bottom of this page).
2) How current is the science that supported the practice or practice guidelines?
3) What new evidence has emerged since the practice guidelines were crafted and adopted? Provide two examples that support your assessment.
