Post the following:
In this Discussion you will identify three clinical practice problems in your current (or past) practice as a nurse that risk compromise to quality of care and patient safety; referencing the NDNQI list. You will select one of these problems to clearly define the risk and ask a question using the PICO format. Asking the question and selecting the problem is the first step of the Impact Model that is discussed in the textbook. Evidence-based practice questions are asked and written in the PICO format and you will use this process as you develop an evidence-based practice project that will be completed in steps during the course.

Week 2 Discussion
LEVELS OF EVIDENCE TO CHANGE PRACTICE
What are the different types of evidence and how does one evaluate a source’s reliability?
Understanding the different levels, or hierarchy, of research evidence and how they relate to your research question will help you in determining the appropriate levels of support when engaged in the research process. To that end, you must consider how primary and secondary sources contribute to research as well as the meaningfulness of peer-reviewed articles and meta-analyses for promoting future research.

Week 3 Discussion
COMMON FLAWS IN QUANTITATIVE STUDIES
When nurses have a question about a clinical practice issue that they can turn to the literature to see what scientific evidence is available that addresses their question. However, as discussed in Week 2, not all evidence is created equal. When looking at the literature, it is important to evaluate each research study. Before assumptions can be made about the applicability of a study's results, specific elements of a research design must be evaluated.
This week, you will examine elements of the strength of a quantitative research study’s design, including sample size, generalizability, statistical analysis and conclusions. Keep in mind all studies have flaws or are not valid for your population. Consequently, one study by itself will not warrant a change in practice. It is important to find a number of studies to support your change in practice.

Week 5 Discussion
USING EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE MODELS TO GUIDE PRACTICE CHANGE AND DEVELOPING A PLAN FOR THE EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE PROJECT
Facilities often establish EBP committees who are charged with reviewing the evidence and proposing changes in practice. The committees work together to synthesize plans and engage in activities that will promote EBP in to promote quality care and patient safety. Integral to developing and implementing EBP change are the need to utilize effective communication and leadership skills.
The required readings this week provide an overview of different evidence-based models that can be used as guides to conducting evidence-based practice change projects. In the videos for Week 5, an EBP committee discusses the evidence-based steps they used to identify, assess, propose and implement a practice change in their work settings. For this Discussion, you will see a committee as it completes it work. There are two scenarios with the videos. In the first one, there are issues that develop that need to be resolved. You will be asked to pause the video and identify how you would address the conflict that seems to be developing over the EBP change. In the second scenario, you will see how leadership skills are utilized to help focus the committee on the EBP project.
