Although nurses contribute significantly to patient outcomes, there are few data documenting the nature or magnitude of that impact and how it may vary in different practice settings or geographic regions (Lang & Marek, 1992). Only when we move beyond the theoretical into the practical application of outcome evaluation and management will we be able to have a data-driven system to articulate nursing's contribution to patient outcomes. Making this application a reality requires the vision and talents of nurses in all roles from staff nurses to administrators.
尽管护士对患者的治疗结果有重大贡献，但很少有数据记录这种影响的性质或程度，以及它在不同的实践环境或地理区域可能如何变化（朗和马雷克，1992年）。只有当我们从理论转向结果评估和管理的实际应用时，我们才能拥有一个以数据为驱动的系统来阐明护理对患者治疗结果的贡献。要将这种应用变为现实，需要从普通护士到管理人员等所有角色的护士具备远见和才能。
