NURS 4325 Knowledge Check 2 module 5 with complete solution NURS 4325 Knowledge Check 2 module 5 with complete solution According to Tucker (2019), which of the following is a category of strategy for... successful implementation of evidence-based practice? Compliance Evidence Communication Money According to Tucker (2019), which of the following is characteristic of the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research? A focus on the implementation strategies used A focus on the characteristics of the evidence A focus on the population to be served A focus on the gap between results in research trials and clinical settings Open-ended questions provide primarily data. confirmatory qualitative quantitative exhaustive In order to collect qualitative data open-ended questions are asked. According to Makic & Granger (2019), which of the following nursing interventions should be deimplimented? Using auscultation of air injected in stomach to determine correct feeding tube placement. Early ambulation of older adult patients. Using aloe vera on skin to prevent or treat radiodermatitis. Using pneumatic intermittent pressure devices after surgery. According to Makic & Grander (2019), most of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) goals for 2020 have already been met. True False According to Groves & Gray (2019), which one of the following are considered barriers to evidence-based practice? There is a need for more translational research. There are adequate resources for implementation of the Evidence Based Practice by nurses. There is a need to implement a pilot study as a part of following the Iowa model. The potential for improved outcomes for patients, providers, and healthcare agencies. According to Brower & Nemec (2017), evidence based practice is based on which of the following? Clinical guidelines, best research, patient preferences Best research, clinical judgment, expert opinion Clinical expertise, best research, patient preferences Best research, expert opinion, clinical judgment According to Brower & Nemec (2017), which of the following is a reason for the importance of following evidence-based practice? Evidence based practice is required for hospitals to attain magnet status. Regulating agencies require the implementation of evidence-based practice. Individual practitioners and institutions can be held liable for failure to adhere to evidence-based practice policies. Medicare and insurance providers require evidence-based practice for full reimbursement. What statistical test would you use to determine a relationship between hours worked by nurses in a week and medication errors? r- Pearson product moment standard deviation frequency distribution X2- chi squared Statistics used to show associations or relationships is the Pearson product moment-r. A nursing student is critiquing a study for her nursing research class. She feels like the study findings are generalizable to other settings and populations because: the sampling criteria for subjects was very narrow and restrictive, to provide a homogenous sample. the review of literature was extensive and included a conceptual framework. there is consistency of the current study's finding with that found in previous research studies. it has a small sample size which was obtained by convenience. External validity is concerned with the extent to which study findings can be generalized beyond the sample used in the study. According to Makic & Grander (2019), which of the following is a way of measuring the implementation of evidence-based practice in an organization? Relevant evidence at point of care Number of publications Number of evidence-based projects completed Financial commitment to evidence-based practice According to Makic & Granger (2019), which of the following is true of practice traditions? They are often supported by evidence. They provide little benefit to patients. Nurses frequently resist carrying them out. They can be easily abandoned. Descriptive statistics should be reported in every study for which of the following reasons? As an indication of reliability To show the sample characteristics To determine validity To provide a powerful analysis of data The researcher needs to obtain as complete a picture of the sample as possible. Frequencies of descriptive variables related to the sample are usually obtained first. According to Brower & Nemec (2017), which of the following is an important INSTITUTIONAL factor in the adoption of evidence-based practice? Attitude Funding Time constraints Culture In the Iowa Model of Evidence Based Practice, if a nurse brings forward a new research article with ideas that she/he would like to consider implementing on the unit, this would be considered to be: an opportunity for comparative evaluation between two units. a problem-focused trigger. an opportunity to monitor and analyze structure, processes, and outcome data. a knowledge-focused trigger. In the Iowa Model, Knowledge-focused triggers include: new research or other literature, national agencies or organizational standards or guidelines, philosophies of care, and observations from insitutional standards committees A hospital is implementing bedside report. A few nurses are doing bedside reports, but most are bringing up reasons why it may not work. Using the Transtheoretical Model, discussed in Tucker (2019), what stage of change is the hospital in? For this question, take the point of view of the hospital as an organization. Maintenance ?????? Contemplation Pre-contemplation Preparation According to Brower & Nemec (2017), which of the following would be considered moderate level evidence? Expert opinion Cohort studies Randomized controlled trials Patient preferences According to Grove & Gray (2019), what is alpha? The probability of avoiding a type II error The probability of avoiding a type I error The probability of making a type II error The probability of making a type I error Content validity is defined as: including all of the major elements relevant to the construct being measured. measuring stability, equivalence, and homogeneity of a questionnaire. maintaining research controls as indicated in the study design and hypotheses. reviewing the inferential and demographics data of the sample. Validity demonstrates that the measurement measures the concepts that it is suposed to measure. For example, a stress tool should measure stress and not depression to be valid. A researcher notes that although no statistical significance was found, some elderly nursing home residents with dementia who were exposed to soothing music for 6 hours daily exhibited lower heart rates and less agitation. This finding would have which type of significance? Clinical importance General inferences Inferential statistics Statistical significance Clinical significance is related to the practical importance of findings, whereas statistical significance addresses the mathematical findings following statistical analysis of data. The finding may or may not have general significance. Further testing would be required before any inferences could be made. No mathematical significance means no statistical significance. Cronbach’s alpha is used to determine: stability of repeated measurement over time. triangulation of theories. internal consistency among items on a scale. equivalence of observations The statistical procedure used to examine the extent to which all items in an instrument consistently measure the construct is Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Test-retest reliability determines the equivalence of items. Reliability is stable measurements over time. Triangulation is a term in qualitative research. You are examining results that are comparing two different educational degrees in nursing (ADN and BSN) to their reported levels of commitment to the profession. The researcher set the alpha level (the level of statistical significance) prior to the study at p< 0.05. Which of the findings below demonstrate statistical significance, based on the researcher's alpha level? A significant difference was found between associate degree and baccalaureate graduates' scores (t =1.25, p = 0.24). A significant difference was found between associate degree and baccalaureate graduates' scores (t=2.56, p = 0.01). No decision can be made as to whether a significant difference was found among diploma, associate degree, and baccalaureate graduates' scores. No significant difference was found between associate degree and baccalaureate graduates’ scores (t= 1.96, p = 0.04). According to Tucker (2019), which of the following is an implementation strategy for the maintenance stage? Monitoring data trends Managing barriers to change Aligning the change with strategic priorities Flexible self-learning modules According to Grove & Gray (2019), what is power? The probability of making a type I error The probability of making a type II error The probability of avoiding a type I error The probability of avoiding a type II error Which type of reliability is the consistency of measurement of two or more raters? Test-retest Accuracy Interrater Content When two or more raters are measured for consistency of data collection it is interrater reliability. Quiz Score: 84 out of 100 [Show More]
