, Chapter 1. Primary Care in the Twenty-First Century: A Circle of Caring
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




1. A nurse has conducted a literature review in an effort to identify the effect of handwashing on the in
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



cidence of nosocomial (hospital- ju ju ju



acquired) infections in acute care settings. An article presented findings at a level of significance of <
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



0.01. This indicates that ju ju ju




A) the control group and the experimental group were more than 99% similar.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




B) the findings of the study have less than 1% chance of being attributable to chance.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




C) the effects of the intervention were nearly zero.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




D) the clinical significance of the findings was less than 1:100.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




Ans: B ju




Feedback: The level of significance is the level at which the researcher believes that the study results m
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



ost likely represent a nonchance event. A level of significance of <0.01 indicates that there is less than
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



1% probability that the result is due to chance.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




2. A nurse has read a qualitative research study in order to understand the lived experience of parents w
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



ho have a neonatal loss. Which of the following questions should the nurse prioritize when appraising t
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



he results of this study?
ju ju ju ju




A) How well did the authors capture the personal experiences of these parents?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




B) How well did the authors control for confounding variables that may have affected the findings?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




C) Did the authors use statistical measures that were appropriate to the phenomenon in question?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




D) Were the instruments that the researchers used statistically valid and reliable?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




Ans: A ju




Feedback: Qualitative studies are judged on the basis of how well they capture and convey the subjecti
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



ve experiences of individuals. Statistical measures and variables are not dimensions of a qualitative met
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



hodology.

3. A nurse has expressed skepticism to a colleague about the value of nursing research, claiming that nu
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



rsing research has little relevance to practice. How can the nurses colleague best defend the importanc
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



e of nursing research?
ju ju ju

,A) The existence of nursing research means that nurses are now able to access federal grant money, so
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



mething that didnt use to be the case. ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




B) Nursing research has allowed the development of masters and doctoral programs and has greatly in
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



creased the credibility of the profession.
ju ju ju ju ju




C) The growth of nursing research has caused nursing to be viewed as a true profession, rather than si
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



mply as a trade or a skill.
ju ju ju ju ju ju




D) The application of nursing research has the potential to improve nursing practice and patient o
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



utcomes.

Ans: D ju




Feedback: The greatest value of nursing research lies in the potential to improve practice and, ultimatel
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



y, to improve patient outcomes. This supersedes the contributions of nursing research to education prog
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



rams, grant funding, or the public view of the profession.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




4. Tracy is a nurse with a baccalaureate degree who works in the labor and delivery unit of a busy ur
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



ban hospital. She has noticed that many new mothers abandon breast-
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



feeding their babies when they experience early challenges and wonders what could be done to enc
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



ourage more women to continue breast-
ju ju ju ju ju



feeding. What role is Tracy most likely to play in a research project that tests an intervention aimed
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



at promoting breast-feeding?
ju ju




A) Applying for grant funding for the research project ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




B) Posing the clinical problem to one or more nursing researchers
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




C) Planning the methodology of the research project ju ju ju ju ju ju




D) Carrying out the intervention and submitting the results for publication
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




Ans: B ju




Feedback: A major role for staff nurses is to identify questions or problems for research. Grant ap
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



plications, methodological planning, and publication submission are normally carried out by nur
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



ses who have advanced degrees in nursing.
ju ju ju ju ju ju




5. A patient signed the informed consent form for a drug trial that was explained to patient by a res
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



earch assistant. Later, the patient admitted to his nurse that he did not understand the research assis
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



tants explanation or his own role in the study. How should this patients nurse respond to this revelati
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



on?

A) Explain the research process to the patient in greater detail.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




B) Describe the details of a randomized controlled trial for the patient.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju

, C) Inform the research assistant that the patients consent is likely invalid.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




D) Explain to the patient that his written consent is now legally binding.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




Ans: C ju




Feedback: Just as the staff nurse is not responsible for medical consent, the staff nurse is not responsibl
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



e for research consent. If patients who have agreed to participate exhibit ambivalence or uncertainty ab
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



out participating, do not try to convince them to participate. Ask the person from the research team wh
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



o is managing consents to speak with concerned patients about the study, even after a patient has signed
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



the consent forms.
ju ju




Multiple Selection ju




6. A nurse leader is attempting to increase the awareness of evidence-
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



based practice (EBP) among the nurses on a unit. A nurse who is implementing EBP integrates which o
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



f the following? (Select all that apply.)
ju ju ju ju ju ju




A) Interdisciplinary consensus ju




B) Nursing tradition ju




C) Research studies ju




D) Patient preferences and values ju ju ju




E) Clinical expertise ju ju




Ans: C, D, E ju ju ju




Feedback: Fineout-Overholt, Melnyk, Stillwell, and Williamson define EBP as a problem-
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



solving approach to the delivery of healthcare that integrates the best evidence from studies and patient
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



care data with clinician expertise and patient preferences and values.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




Multiple Choice ju




7. Mrs. Mayes is a 73-year- ju ju ju ju



old woman who has a diabetic foot ulcer that has been extremely slow to heal and which now poses a t
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



hreat of osteomyelitis. The wound care nurse who has been working with Mrs. Mayes applies evidence
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



-
based practice (EBP) whenever possible and has proposed the use of maggot therapy to debride necroti
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



c tissue. Mrs. Mayes, however, finds the suggestion repugnant and adamantly opposes this treatment d
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



espite the sizable body of evidence supporting it. How should the nurse reconcile Mrs. Mayes views wit
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju



h the principles of EBP?
ju ju ju ju




A) The nurse should explain that reliable and valid research evidence overrides the patients opinion.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju




B) The nurse should explain the evidence to the patient in greater detail.
