Area of Science:

  • Nursing Science
  • Healthcare Research Prioritization

Background:

  • Critical care nursing research requires defined priorities to guide future studies.
  • The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) initiated a systematic process to establish these priorities.

Framework:

  • A three-phased approach was employed for priority identification.
  • This framework ensured comprehensive topic generation and rigorous ranking.

Implementation:

  • Phase 1: Developed a 78-item survey from a literature review.
  • Phase 2: Engaged ~1000 critical care nurses in rating survey items for importance.
  • Phase 3: Conducted a Consensus Conference using Likert-type and magnitude estimation scaling for final priority ranking.

Implications:
