Evidence Based Practice (EBP001)

A.  Select a research-based article that answers your EBP question from part A2 to conduct an evidence appraisal.

1.  Discuss the background or introduction (i.e., the purpose) of the research article.

2.  Describe the research methodology.

3.  Identify the level of evidence using the Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice (JHNEBP) model.

Note: The article you select should not be more than five years old.  Note:  Refer to “Appendix E: Research Evidence Appraisal Tool” for information on how to level a research-based article.

4.  Summarize how the researcher analyzed the data in the article.

5.  Summarize the ethical consideration(s) of the research-based article. If none are present, explain why.

6.  Identify the quality rating of the research-based article according to the JHNEBP model. Note:  Refer to “Appendix E: Research Evidence Appraisal Tool” for information on how to establish the quality rating.

7.  Analyze the results or conclusions of the research-based article and explain how the article helps answer your EBP question.

B.  Select a non-research article from a peer-reviewed journal that helps to answer your EBP question from part A2 to conduct an evidence appraisal.

1.  Discuss the background or introduction (i.e., the purpose) of the non-research article.

2.  Describe the type of evidence (e.g., case study, quality improvement project, clinical practice guideline).

3.  Identify the level of evidence using the JHNEBP model. Note: The article you select should not be more than five years old.  Note:  Refer to “Appendix F: Non-Research Evidence Appraisal Tool” for information on how to level the non-research-based article.

4.  Identify the quality rating of the non-research-based article according to the JHNEBP model.

5.  Discuss how the author’s recommendation(s) in the article helps to answer your EBP question.

C.  Recommend a practice change that addresses your EBP question using both the research and non-research articles you selected for Part A and Part B.

D.  Acknowledge sources, using APA-formatted in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.
