The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be safely...

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Methods of Documentation III: PIE

Methods of Documentation III: PIE

Problem-intervention-evaluation (PIE) is a systematic approach to documentation used in healthcare settings for clinical decision-making and patient care planning. It is a structured approach to organizing patient data based on problems, interventions, and evaluations. Here's a breakdown of its key features and considerations:

Critical Thinking II

Critical Thinking II

Critical thinking is a cognitive process with several attributes. The attributes of critical thinking include the following:

Critical Thinking I

Critical Thinking I

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career with...

Area of Science:

Medical Informatics
Evidence-Based Medicine
Clinical Decision Support

Background:

Effective treatment decisions integrate external evidence, internal data, and patient-specific factors.
Clinicians require efficient methods to access and utilize the growing body of medical literature.
Hand surgery presents complex clinical dilemmas necessitating robust information retrieval strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

To provide a tested methodology for structuring clinical questions from dilemmas.
To guide the transformation of clinical questions into effective search queries for online resources.
To identify key online databases and continuous evidence delivery methods for hand surgeons.

Main Methods:

Development and testing of a structured question-formulation methodology.
Identification and curation of preeminent online evidence-based databases.
Exploration of online tools for continuous evidence dissemination.
Application of the methodology through a practical literature search example.

Main Results:

A validated methodology for translating clinical problems into searchable queries.
A curated list of optimal online resources for hand surgery evidence.
Discussion of effective strategies for ongoing evidence updates.
Demonstration of the methodology's utility in a common upper extremity surgical scenario.

Conclusions:

The proposed methodology facilitates efficient evidence retrieval for clinical practice.
Online resources and continuous delivery systems enhance evidence-based decision-making for hand surgeons.
Structured querying improves the accessibility and application of relevant medical literature.
