    Study Notes

    Evidence Summaries

    • Evidence summaries are accessible in various databases like PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Joanna Briggs Institute, and library catalogs.
    • Primary evidence can come from direct patient interactions, clinical trials, peer-reviewed articles, conference proceedings, and large datasets.

    Cochrane Collaboration

    • An international nonprofit established in 1993, enhancing informed healthcare decisions.
    • Involves contributors from over 120 countries.
    • Comprises 53 Review Groups, each focusing on different healthcare topics, offering methodological and editorial support.

    Cochrane Reviews

    • Provide the best available information about healthcare interventions' effectiveness.
    • A systematic review integrates results from various original studies to summarize findings in a focused area.
    • Example: “Interventions for Preventing Falls in Older People Living in the Community,” which identifies effective fall prevention measures.

    Cochrane Library

    • The primary publication platform for the Cochrane Collaboration, containing six key databases:
      • Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR)
      • Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL)
      • Cochrane Methodology Register (CMAR)
      • Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects (DARE)
      • Health Technology Assessment Database (HTA)
      • NHS Economic Evaluation Database (EED)

    Cochrane Database

    • Central output location for Cochrane Reviews, updated monthly and published quarterly in DVD format.
    • Over 6,300 reviews and 2,400 protocols were available as of May 2015.
    • Abstracts are freely accessible online and presented in clear, understandable language.

    Cochrane Centers

    • Located globally, these centers support collaboration and training among Cochrane members.
    • Responsibilities include promoting Cochrane resources, organizing events, and fostering research collaborations.

    Cochrane Nursing Care Field (CNCF)

    • Focuses on systematic reviews relevant to nursing by identifying unmet topics and primary studies.
    • Aims to raise awareness, disseminate findings, and secure funding for nursing-related Cochrane reviews.

    Evidence-Based Nursing Practice Centers

    • Notable centers include:
      • Academic Center for Evidence-Based Nursing at the University of Texas Health Science Center
      • Joanna Briggs Institute in Australia
      • Sarah Cole Hirsh Institute for Best Nursing Practices in Cleveland.

    Models to Promote Evidence-Based Practice

    Stetler Model

    • Five phases guiding EBPs:
      • Preparation: Gather supporting information.
      • Validation: Critical analysis of research.
      • Comparative evaluation: Assess evidence fit for clinical settings.
      • Translation and application: Implementing practice changes.
      • Evaluation: Informal and formal evaluation methods.

    Iowa Model

    • Focuses on a continuum for EBP implementation, including:
      • Identifying triggers, forming a team, synthesizing research, piloting practices, evaluating outcomes, and disseminating results.

    Barriers to Evidence-Based Practice

    • Common challenges include:
      • Heavy workloads, lack of management support, insufficient resources, limited authority for practice changes, and resistant workplace culture.

    Facilitators of Evidence-Based Practice

    • Cultivating an organizational culture that values clinical inquiry is crucial:
      • Leadership support for EBP projects, mentorship, access to guidelines, evidence-based policies, and journal clubs enhance the EBP environment.
