13 Common Methodologies for Change Research Quality Assurance/ Improvement Evidence Based Practice Systems Redesign Intent Generate knowledge Ensure or improve optimal patient care Apply the best evidence from research into practice Enable robust implementation of process changes Purpose Systematic testing of theory or hypotheses that investigates areas with limited or no knowledge Systematic datadriven improvements in particular settings Problem-solving approach to clinical decisionmaking that integrates best available evidence into practice Application of findings from the implementation science literature that incorporates staff engagement and ownership in the improvement ONS EBP Goal Group, 2012

14 Research A systematic investigation, including research development, testing and evaluation, designed to develop or contribute to generalizable knowledge. Activities which meet this definition constitute research for purposes of this policy, whether or not they are conducted or supported under a program which is considered research for other purposes. For example, some demonstration and service programs may include research activities. 6.egulations (45 CFR )

22 ONS Definition of EBP Evidence based practice is the integration of best available evidence, clinical expertise and patient preferences at the point of practice. 22

23 EBP Evolution 1992 Guyatt EBP Workgroup 1996 Sackett, et al 1996 Mulhall 2005 Straus, et al 2008 Sigma Theta Tau 2012 Dearholt & Dang A new paradigm for medical practice stressed examination of evidence from clinical research. it s about integrating individual clinical expertise and the best external evidence. Evidence-based care concerns the incorporation of evidence from research, clinical experience, and patient preferences into decisions about the health care of individual patients. requires the integration of the research evidence with our clinical expertise and our patient s unique values and circumstances. process of shared decision-making between the practitioner, patient and others significant to them based on research evidence, the patient s experiences and preferences, clinical expertise and other available robust sources of information. EBP considers internal and external influences on practice and encourages critical thinking in the judicious application of such evidence to the care of individual patient, a patient population, or a system.

24 Nursing Evolution Industrial Model of Nursing Efficient, cost effective, specific focus Individual is trained only for specified task assigned Training is fast, resource conservative & linear Kramer, Brewer, et al, 2014 Professional Model of Nursing Development of holistic professional practice Individual is EDUCATED & skilled in performance of the whole task as the profession defines Continual assessment & modifications to care based upon changing patient needs, preferences and response to care Complex management of care, multiple patients within multiple complex systems 24

25 Why EBP? Demonstrated Improvement : Quality of patient care Patient outcomes Patient satisfaction Patient safety Nurse safety Nurse Satisfaction Nursing Culture Budgetary impact Aligns With: Excellence frameworks: Baldridge, Magnet, Pathway to Excellence VHA initiatives for Excellence in Veteran Care 25
