Nursing Clinical Information System01:27

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
The Scientific Method in Nursing Process01:18

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...
Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions01:29

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:
Nursing Evaluation01:15

Nursing Evaluation

The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Data Collection I01:30

Data Collection I

Data collection gathers information needed to make accurate judgments about a patient's present condition. During a health history interview, subjective data is collected from the patient, their caregivers, or family members, and objective data is collected through observations and physical assessment. Patients are the primary source of subjective data. Thus information gathered from patients through interviews, observations, and physical examination is primary data. Secondary sources of data...
Critical Thinking I01:24

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:

  • Nursing Education Research
  • Health Professions Education
  • Psychometrics

Background:

  • Existing systematic reviews on evidence-based practice (EBP) assessment instruments primarily focus on registered nurses and healthcare professionals.
  • There is a significant gap in comprehensive reviews specifically evaluating instruments for nursing students' EBP abilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically evaluate the psychometric properties of instruments used to assess evidence-based practice (EBP) ability in nursing students.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a systematic review following Consensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
  • Searched five major databases for relevant studies published up to April 1, 2025.
  • Assessed methodological quality and psychometric properties using COSMIN standards.

Main Results:

  • Content validity of reviewed instruments is questionable; structural validity and internal consistency were generally good.
  • Reliability, criterion validity, measurement error, and hypothesis testing were addressed in a few studies, but with methodological concerns.
  • Crucial psychometric properties like cross-cultural validity and responsiveness were not evaluated.

Conclusions:

  • The psychometric quality of instruments assessing nursing students' EBP ability requires improvement.
  • The S-EBPQ and EBP-COQ show promise but have limitations in content and structural validity.
  • Nursing educators should develop and validate EBP assessment instruments for students according to COSMIN guidelines and student-specific contexts.
