Nursing

Objectives
 Overview of effectiveness science (ES).
 Contributions and impact of nurse
investigators to ES
 Future Directions
Efficacy Studies
 Investigate the benefits of an intervention under
ideal and highly controlled conditions (RCTs).
 Substantial differences from clinical practice

Study protocol - minimize treatment preferences &
multimodal treatment programs,
control of the skill levels of the person(s)
delivering the intervention, and
 restrictive control over the study sample.
 High internal validity. Limitations in external validity
(generalizability to practice)
 Example: A phase III double blind trial of duloxetine
to treat painful chemotherapy-induced peripheral
neuropathy (Ellen Smith; ASCO meeting, 2012)

Effectiveness Studies
 Examine outcomes of interventions under
circumstances that approximate the real world.
 Employ more heterogeneous samples,
clinicians delivery of treatment (rather than a
trained RA), and settings are routine clinical
practice.
 High external validity; more applicable to
everyday practice. Sacrifice some degree of
internal validity.
 Examples:


Impact of nursing surveillance on failure to
rescue (Shever, 2011).
Dissemination of the Tobacco Tactics
Intervention In Community Hospitals (Duffy et al,
2012)
Efficacy and Effectiveness
 Distinction between efficacy and
effectiveness studies viewed as a
spectrum along a continuum.
 Study guided by


State of the science on the topic.
Research questions or hypotheses.
Effectiveness Science
 Testing healthcare interventions in real
world settings, advancing use of
research findings by diverse populations,
training and career development of the
next generation of investigators.
 Uses comparisons, subgroups and
context to understand what healthcare
treatments work for whom and in what
settings.
(Simpson et al, 2010; special issue of Medical Care, June 2012)
Why Effectiveness Science
 Help consumers, clinicians, purchasers,
& policy makers to make informed
decisions that will improve healthcare at
the individual & population level.
 Knowing efficacy does not necessarily
guarantee effectiveness in practice.
Effectiveness Science includes
 PCOR
 Comparative effectiveness research
 Implementation and dissemination
science
 Interface with electronic healthcare data
repositories, and informatics
Terminology
 CER – generation and synthesis of evidence that
compares alternative methods to prevent,
diagnose, treat and monitor a clinical condition or
improve the delivery of care.
 Translation/Implementation science – testing
effectiveness of implementation strategies to
promote adoption of evidence in healthcare
delivery.
 Dissemination – targeted distribution of
intervention materials to a specific public health
or clinical practice audience.
(Titler & Everett, 2002; Wensing et al 2006; NIH; IOM, 2009; Simpson, 2010)
Examples of Top Priorities
CER
 Primary prevention of falls in older adults
 Dissemination & translation strategies to

Qualitative and Mixed Methods
 Used in many studies
 Focus groups
 Interviews of participants
 Key informants
 Used to understand context of care delivery
 Necessary to understand users’/clinicians’
perceptions about the implementation
intervention, usefulness of each component,
and to uncover the underlying mechanisms
of the intervention.

Evidence-Based Practice: From Book
to Bedside
 Improved pain assessment and pain
management.
 Less pain intensity.
 For each one-unit increase in the
Summative Index, total costs decreased
by $1,598.75 (p = 0.002)
 A net savings to the hospital of more
than $131,000 per 100 patients, even
after implementation costs are taken into
account.
 Improvements sustained
