There are two methods when it comes to evaluating the evidence in nursing. These methods are:
Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses
Systematic reviews are responsible for summarizing the results that are obtained from
research that has been carried out, in our case, controlled trials in the health care sector (Gough
& Richardson, 2018). It is from these summary that valid and reliable conclusions can be made on the matter under trial. Systematic reviews are done in such a way that the results of multiple
primary study cases that are strictly related to each other are synthesized by the use of strategies
that are meant to eliminate biases and error margin (Gough & Richardson, 2018).
Meta-analysis is a combination of numerical data from different primary sources that focused
on the same objective, to produce a single approximation based on all the sources (Burgess,
Thompson & CRP CHD Genetics Collaboration, 2016). This estimation is more accurate
because due to its nature of analyzing data from multiple sources. The researcher is in a position
to explain any inconsistencies in the case of their occurrence, quantify, and explore the
relationship between the data (Burgess, Thompson & CRP CHD Genetics Collaboration, 2016).
Furthermore, it is an efficient way of using pre-existing data.
Systematic reviews are well-detailed and transparent, whereas meta-analysis is simply
analyzing data implying the latter is a more time-consuming procedure (Hyun Kang, 2018).
There are times where systematic reviews would contain statistical data, but a meta-analyses
cannot include any overviews. Systematic reviews can consist of a narrative synthesis that
combines data that are very different, while meta-analysis cannot be used to analyze data that vary from each other. For instance, the age of children in a specific region only, without some other cases.

Re: Topic 3 DQ 2

Topic 3 DQ 2

Name two different methods for evaluating evidence. Compare and contrast these two methods.

According to Joseph (2019), the two methods of evaluating evidence are quantitative and qualitative approach. The quantitative methodology entails assessing the data and comparing the various measurements used in the study under consideration. Standard deviation, mean or average, and other statistical parameters are some of the metrics used in quantitative evidence evaluation. Furthermore, the quantitative requirements must be measured or use formal procedures for prediction, ensuring objectivity of the outcome and the variables used.

The assessment of the processes, meanings, experiences, and perceptions that research participants, including patients, have toward a particular variable under review is part of the conceptual framework used in qualitative ways of assessing evidence. As a result, no quantitative parameters are used in the qualitative method. Interpretation and application of emphatic comprehensions are used to assess relevant information, implying that the findings and variables are reliant on the research study’s context.

Week 6 discussion

/in /by

During WW II, the Polish resistance obtained the German encoding machine called enigma. The machine was brought to England. The British broke the code machine just before an attack on the British city of Coventry. Churchill, the Prime Minister, faced a dilemma – tell Coventry about the forth-coming attack and save those people  but the Germans would know that the British broke the code. The Germans would change it and London could be attacked killing even more people. OR not tell Coventry and protect London and other places.

What would you advise Churchill to do?

Would you tell him to lie about whether he knew?

Why?

Quantitative and Qualitative Research in Clinical Settings

/in /by

 

Some people consider the difference between the terms “quantitative” and “qualitative” to be similar to the difference between facts and feelings. These individuals might argue that quantitative approaches are better or more appropriate than qualitative approaches, particularly in health care. They might support this argument by saying that quantitative approaches are based on numbers and concrete evidence rather than on subjective observations and opinions.

Based on the information presented in this week’s Learning Resources and Media, do you think this an accurate way of distinguishing quantitative and qualitative methods of research? Is one method inherently superior to the other? How would you describe the difference between quantitative and qualitative research to someone who was completely unfamiliar with these concepts?

This Discussion explores the characteristics of quantitative and qualitative research methods as well as the application of each in the practice setting. You examine the suitability of each method to evidence-based practice. You are encouraged to make connections between general characteristics and abstract research concepts to realistic scenarios and actual experiences in your responses to this week’s Discussion prompts. 

Note: This Discussion takes place in small groups, which should have been assigned by your Instructor.

To prepare:

  • Review Dr. Shi’s comparison of the characteristics of quantitative and qualitative research presented in this week’s media presentation and in the “Overview of Qualitative Research Methods” tutorial.
  • Reflect on the Learning Resources focusing on the use of quantitative and qualitative research in health care.
  • With the two articles you reviewed in mind (one quantitative and one qualitative), think about how those types of research projects influence, or support, evidence-based nursing practice. Ask yourself: Which methodology is most appropriate for supporting evidence-based practice? What characteristics of that methodology support my conclusion?

By Day 3

Post a cohesive response in your small group that addresses the following:

  • Analyze how quantitative and qualitative research projects can be applied to evidence-based nursing practice.
  • What characteristics of quantitative or qualitative research make it the most appropriate for addressing evidence-based practice problems? Support your position.

POSTER PRESENTATIONS: 

       1. At a minimum, EBP/research posters should include the following sections:

        1.Title, Student Name, Widener University

         2. Abstract (150-250 words max)

          3. Introduction / Background (Keep it brief!)

           4. Clinical Issue: Identify clinical issue, significance & and PICO(T) question

            5. Search Process: brief – databases & keywords used

            6. Critical Appraisal of Evidence: brief! Identify and synthesize key findings from 3 research articles related to your topic (and PICO(T) question) that have been critically appraised and evaluated for a potential change in nursing practice (* articles must be from peer-reviewed journals & ideally published within the past 5-7 years [unless it is a seminal work on the topic]).

           7. Summary of Practice Recommendations: summarize the key practice changes that are recommended based on your findings.

           8. Conclusion: Provide a few sentences concluding your topic & findings.

           9. References: must be in APA format

           2. Posters should be developed using an electronic scientific poster template. Free templates using PowerPoint can be found at MakeSigns.com (https://www.makesigns.com/SciPosters_Templates.aspx (Links to an external site.)). The typical poster size for conferences is 48×36 (landscape). The design/layout you select is up to you and should be appropriate for the information that you plan to present.

   3. Tips for creating EBP posters:

  • Keep words to a minimum! Should have fewer words in each section than your papers.
  • Include as much white space as possible.
  • Images, graphs, and charts are a great way to display information (instead of text).
  • Bullet points make information easier to read in a poster.
  • Font size in a 48×36 poster should be at least 24 points.
  • 4.  Students will exhibit &/or verbally present their posters on the Poster Day if being held in person -OR- in person virtually if course is being held in an online platform (such as Zoom). Other nursing students and faculty may be invited to attend to view the posters so that a conference-like atmosphere is attained.

Stressed Out and Burnout Nurses

Why are so many nurses stressed out or have burnout, there are so many reasons but one big reason is staffing shortage. Nurse staffing has some ethical and legal issues that does cause a nurse to be stressed or have burnout. As a nurse if you have a heavy assignment due to not enough staff working, and you are extremely busy, so that you may not be able to provide adequate care to all the patients in your assignment. The nurse may be able to administer all the patient’s medications and other medical interventions but they may not be able to provide the psychosocial support that they may need, since their patient assignment is heavy. There could be other things that may be missed or forego and it can put the patient at risk for a poor outcome. This affects the nurse in an ethical and moral way by being placed in the position to decide on doing just the basics for all their patient’s because they are short staffed and do not have time to do all of what the nurse should do (Lowrie, n.d.). A nurse choosing what they should do or not do for a patient adds a lot of stress on them, for being in an already stressful job this can cause burnout.  I find when I have heavy assignment due to being short staff that something has to give, most of the time it is the documentation. I find myself staying late to complete my documentation, but that is not a good practice since I may not always remember everything I needed to document. Accurate documentation is very important for nurses to complete, the old saying is – if it is not written down it was not done. If a nurse needs to go to court for lawsuit by a patient and the documentation is not accurate enough or very little documented, the nurse may be liable for neglect or harm which may cost the nurse their license or worse. This is just one legal issue that can be associated with short staffing, the hospital management is aware of the short staffing problem which all healthcare facilities are facing and they are trying to find a solution for this problem. Short staffing will continue until there is a solution, some nurses may not be able to wait for the solution, the stress may be too much so they may choose to leave the nursing profession all together, causing more short staffing. The public may be aware that short staffing is a major issue and that failure of nursing care can result in grounds for criminal and civil prosecution according to the Federal Civil False Claims Act (Lowrie, n.d.). Nurses experience job dissatisfaction with continuous staffing shortage, leads to increase stress and burnout for all nurses which can cause the nurse physical distress/illness. Nurses need to make sure they take care of themselves and encourage self-care to our fellow co-workers; this can be hard for the nurse to do since they are the caregivers.

Discussion post 2 200 words: Nursing shortage and burnout are scary words that we are facing even now in the company where I work. Many think of hospital settings and nursing homes where this usually occurs, but this is happening across the profession of nursing.

Corona Virus has done a number on reducing our nursing workforce across the world. Not only have many nurses died from the virus, but many have left their jobs with a genuine fear that they could be next. Many have quit from being stressed about not having adequate protection, but those that have stayed have gotten burned out from inadequate staffing on covid units. Emotional strain from not taking care of their own health and having to stay home to care for their own children are some other reasons there are shortages currently.

Nursing schools have lower enrollment, and these same schools have had a hard time getting hospitals and other health care facilities to agree to train students as they see them as a liability. These facilities should be using these schools not only to train the students but also to help relieve the strain on nursing staff across the board. To avoid a nursing shortage, we should be looking at our student nurse shortage and focusing our efforts and creativity there.

The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) has developed a fact sheet to portray what is going on in the next eight years with the shortage. They expect the problem will only get worse as baby boomers age and as more nurses retire. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, we will have about 3.3 million nurses by 2029 but will need 4.5 million to face this issue (American Association of Colleges of Nursing, n.d.).

Some things that might help to reduce the shortage would be to reduce the workload for nurses, increasing job satisfaction, and possibly retaining them longer. This could be done with nursing students—better support for older nurses, especially seeing them as a value to train the younger ones. Increased recruitment for nursing schools, not only for more students but for more nurse educators to continue to train them—many state-wide initiatives are getting money to start programs to increase enrollment of students and train educators who will then stay in the state for a period of time. This is not an easy problem to fix but one that I think we can make great strides toward.
