NURS-FPX4030 Assessment 2 Determining the Credibility of Evidence and Resources References
Evidence-Based Practice Model and the Importance of Incorporating Credible Evidence into the EBP Model
To use scholarly information, care providers must learn the art of leveraging evidence-based practice models. A potential change to the patient’s solution would be the use of telemedicine to ensure continuous care and education. In this case, translating evidence-based evidence into practice will necessitate using the Ottawa Model, an interactive model for transferring research knowledge into practice (Nilsen, 2020).
In the Ottawa model, the initial procedure for implementing innovation is an assessment of the barriers and supports, followed by monitoring the interventions and the degree of use, and finally, an evaluation of outcomes (Nilsen, 2020). Each stage includes several initiatives to implement innovation or guidelines and increase evidence-based practice across a healthcare setting. As the demand for quality-improvement measures to improve care quality and safety grows, so does the demand for evidence-based models or templates.
Conclusion
Given the changing times and transformations in healthcare, nurses must stay current on practice information. In doing so, nurses benefit greatly from evidence obtained online from reputable medical and nursing databases. On the other hand, obtaining reliable information necessitates understanding the processes of retrieving the sources and assessing their credibility. Therefore, nurses must not only use existing resources but also learn how to find new ones.
Assessing a source’s credibility is a process that requires careful consideration of several factors, such as currency, relevance, accuracy, authority, and purpose. Owing to the burden of diabetes in terms of morbidity, mortality, and cost implications, evidence-based strategies must be implemented to prevent the disease’s consequences for patients and healthcare as a whole. The advancements in technology that can improve the use of telemedicine, as well as the preventable nature of diabetes risk factors that can be leveraged in the fight, provide hope.
