    Advanced practice nurses act as change agents to improve patient care. They developed and implemented a research-based minimal stimulation protocol for premature infants using video, enhancing nursing practice.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Science
    • Clinical Practice Improvement
    • Healthcare Innovation

    Background:

    • Nursing practice requires evidence-based approaches to ensure quality patient care.
    • Advanced practice nurses (APNs) are pivotal in driving clinical practice changes.
    • Integrating research findings into daily nursing activities is essential but challenging.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the role of APNs as change agents in clinical settings.
    • To demonstrate the successful implementation of a research-based protocol by APNs.
    • To explore the necessary components for successful clinical change initiatives.

    Main Methods:

    • APNs identified a need for evidence-based practice in neonatal care.
    • A research-based minimal stimulation protocol was developed for very low-birth weight infants.

  • Video production was utilized as a tool for protocol implementation and dissemination.

    • Main Results:

    • The implementation of the research-based protocol was successful.
    • APNs effectively utilized their roles as change agents.
    • The project underscored the importance of interdisciplinary knowledge for successful innovation.

    Conclusions:

    • APNs are crucial for translating research into practice.
    • Evidence-based protocols, when effectively implemented, can improve patient outcomes.
    • Successful change requires knowledge of change theory, research utilization, and effective communication strategies like video presentations.
