Massachusetts General Hospital advanced research-based practice by re-engineering its Nursing Research Committee. This initiative addressed persistent barriers to implementing evidence-based practice in healthcare settings.

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Nursing Practice
  • Knowledge Translation

Background:

  • Evidence-based practice (EBP) has grown since the 1990s, yet significant barriers hinder the application of research findings in clinical settings.
  • Translating research into practice remains a critical challenge in healthcare, impacting patient outcomes and quality of care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explicate the mission and methods used by Massachusetts General Hospital to promote research-based practice.
  • To identify facilitating factors for research utilization within a healthcare setting.

Main Methods:

  • Re-engineering the Nursing Research Committee as a primary mechanism for advancing research-based practice.
  • Utilizing the Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS) framework to guide the initiative.
