“The most important practical lesson that can
be given to nurses is to teach them what to
observe – how to observe – what symptoms
indicate improvement – what the reverse –
which are of importance – which are of
none”.
(Nightingale, 1860)

Key Drivers for the 20th
Century
• Nursing Research Conferences – 1960’s
– American Nurse’s Association
• Building Foundations
– Developing Academic Programs
• Frameworks and understanding research
– The Practice of Nursing Research
– Burns & Grove, 1980’s
Key Drivers for the 21st
Century
• Formalizing five steps of EBP
– Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt; Evidence-Based Practice
in Nursing & Healthcare
• Nursing developing a researched body of
knowledge
– Boswell & Cannon; Introduction to Nursing Research
Incorporating Evidence-Based Practice
• EBP Conferences
– Locally, Regionally, Nationally
Veterans Healthcare System of
the Ozarks
• EBP Council
• Made up of nurses from diverse care
delivery areas:
–
–
–
–
Acute care
Surgery
Outpatient areas
Psychiatric care
(Boswell & Cannon, Ch.1; Hockenberry, et al; Mantzoukas; Titler; Turkel, et al)
Challenges & Solutions
• Challenges
–
–
–
–
–
Culture Changes
Introducing EBP
Implementing EBP
Educational Gaps
Prior Experience
• Solutions
– Education for staff
& the council
– Poster Presentations
– Developing
Nursing Projects
– Research Critiques
EBP Council
• Serves as resource
– Developing Change Strategies
• Share information
– How to access research
• Guiding staff to other change venues
– Appropriate change process
– Example the Watson Theory Project
Integrating EBP
•
•
•
•
Studies on how to integrate EBP
Culture of change
Recent research developments
Nurse Empowerment
Skills
• Developing skills
• Overcoming resistance to change
• Engaging staff
Mnemonic Development
• Mnemonics have been used by nurses for
years
• Tool to integrate multiple step processes
• ADPIE
Mnemonic
• Reduce volumes of information
• Helps sequence
– Complex information
• Building Blocks for EBP
The ABCs of EBP
= Ask
= Books
= Consider
= Develop
= Evaluate
= Facilitate
A = Ask the Question
• A is the essence of EBP
• Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt
– “BURNING QUESTION”
•
•
•
•
Right Question
Right way
Key to using EBP
A has a secondary mnemonic:
– PICOT
PICOT Format
•
•
•
•
•
P = Population.
I = Intervention.
C = Comparison.
O = Outcome.
T = Time.
Secondary Mnemonic
•
•
•
•
PICOT
Filtering
Project Goals
Focus the research
Goals for PICOT
•
•
•
•
Application of the collected evidence
Narrow focus
End product
Application
PRACTICE PICOT
• So this sample question reads:
• Does this diabetic teaching tool help my
diabetic patients reduce their A1c in six
months compared to the current process we
use?
Example of the PICOT
•
•
•
•
•
Population: Diabetic patients
Intervention: Diabetic teaching tools
Comparison: A1c prior to the education
Outcomes: A1c after the education
Time: 3 months, 6 months, Ongoing
ABCs of EBP
= Ask
= Books
= Consider
= Develop
= Evaluate
= Facilitate
B = Books
• B stands for books; meaning research
• Use the question to narrow the search to
manageable amounts
• Internet search engines & research sites
• http://www.ahrq.gov
• http://www.cdc.gov
(Boswell & Cannon, Ch.7; Burns & Grove, Ch.2; Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt,
Ch.3)
B = Books
• Using Search engines & sites
• Nursing Organizations
• On-line libraries at work or school
Caution!!!!
• CINAHL Full Search under EBSCO Host
• First run: Diabetes
– 57,163 results
• Second run: narrow dates
– 35,672
• Third run: add ‘education’
– 1,623
• Fourth run: add ‘tool’
– 1 study

• Evaluate the research
• Tool developed
• Using the tool

ABCs of EBP
= Ask
= Books
= Consider
= Develop
= Evaluate
= Facilitate
D = Develop & Apply
• Develop and apply the intervention being
considered
• Use specific steps, specific details in order
to make the project manageable
• Specific to your patient population
(Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, Ch.10)
Develop the EBP Project
• Does this tool help my diabetic patients
reduce their A1c in six months compared to
the current process we use?
– Tool adjusted for your patient population
– Instructions for staff
– Instructions for patients
ABCs of EBP
= Ask
= Books
= Consider
= Develop
= Evaluate
= Facilitate
E = Evaluate
• Evaluating care delivery should be second
nature for nurses
• Familiar from the nursing process
• Collecting data to drive the evaluation
• Statistical analysis may be necessary
• Decide what is going to be measured
(Boswell & Cannon, Ch.9; Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, Ch.10 & 11)

• “Let whoever is in charge keep this simple
question in her head:
– Not how can I always do this right thing
myself, but how can I provide for this right
thing to be always done?”
– Florence Nightingale, 1860
The Answer is EBP!
