Little information is known about the use, knowledge, and attitudes toward evidence-based practice (EBP) among nurses in a large academic hospital. This cross-sectional, descriptive study examined the knowledge, attitudes, and use of EBP by nurses at a large academic, Magnet(®)-designated medical center.
Data were collected from 593 nurses who completed the Clinical Effectiveness and Evidence Based Practice Questionnaire between November 2011 and March 2012. Statistical analyses included correlations and multivariate analysis of covariance.
Most nurses (96%) reported that they were aware that an EBP and Research Council existed. The average scores were highest on the Attitudes subscale, followed by the Knowledge/Skills and Practice subscales.
Continuing education for nurses makes a difference in nurses' attitudes, knowledge, and use of EBP in practice. Participation in EBP and research educational activities or Council meetings may affect EBP culture in a large academic medical center.
在一家大型学术医院中,关于护士对循证实践(EBP)的应用、知识和态度的信息知之甚少。这项横断面描述性研究调查了一家大型学术性、获得磁铁(Magnet®)认证的医疗中心护士对循证实践的知识、态度和应用情况。
收集了2011年11月至2012年3月期间完成《临床有效性与循证实践问卷》的593名护士的数据。统计分析包括相关性分析和多变量协方差分析。
大多数护士(96%)报告称他们知道存在循证实践与研究委员会。态度子量表的平均得分最高,其次是知识/技能子量表和实践子量表。
对护士进行继续教育会影响护士在实践中对循证实践的态度、知识和应用。参与循证实践和研究教育活动或委员会会议可能会影响大型学术医疗中心的循证实践文化。
