Using a clear, easy-to-read writing style, Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing & Midwifery, 5th Edition, conveniently breaks down the skills required for healthcare professionals into manageable components. Reflecting the multidisciplinary team dynamic that has become prevalent in the recent decade, this fully revised text teaches students how to find, critically read, and interpret a range of research studies, helping them discover optimal approaches toward helping people reach decisions that are informed by the best available evidence.
-
- Helps students learn to read and understand research results as a foundation for evidence-based practice, explaining how to search the literature and rank it according to the strength of its evidence
- Features case studies, scenarios, and exercises that bring the subject to life, as well as a full-color format and glossary of useful terms
- Reflects a new, multidisciplinary focus, with advanced clinical practice and evidence application across professions and roles woven throughout all chapters
- Includes a new chapter on research literacy for readers who are just beginning to study this topic, as well as a new chapter on how research fits into contemporary practice, with content on interprofessional working and perspectives, quality improvement and service evaluation, and using evidence for learning
- Contains a chapter that addresses the more-strategic concepts of developing an organisational evidence-based culture and making evidence-based changes at the organisational level
- Provides helpful exercises online, including NCLEX questions for U.S. readers
- Clearly explains the process of critical appraisal (quality of the study, interpretation of the results, and applicability of the findings to individual patients), and offers practical advice on how to communicate risks and benefits to patients
- Offers enhanced readability with a refreshed focus on accessibility, practical application, and a logical, systematic presentation of both learning and application
