Week 7 Assignment: Promoting and Implementation of EBP Paper

Submission Type: Two to three page paper

Details:

1. Selecting EBP Model for your EBP Question
2. Select one of the common EBP models that you think it best fits your PICOT question and then explain/justify your selection considering the following:

• The clarity and conciseness of the models concepts and organization
• The diagrammatic representation of the model and the ability to assimilate the concepts and organizes the step of the desired EBP changes
• The comprehensiveness of the model from the beginning stages to implementation and evaluation of outcomes
• The easiness of the use when concepts are applied to direct EBP changes and practice issues in clinical settings
• The flexibility of the model to be applied to various populations of patients, EBP projects, initiatives, and programs
• The use and popularity of the model in the published literature

This assignment should be no more than 2-3 pages (not including the title or references pages).

Common EBP Models:

1. The Stetler Model of Evidence-Based Practice
2. The Iowa Model of Evidence-Based Practice to promote quality care
3. The Model for Evidence-Based Practice Change
4. The Advancing Research and Clinical practice through close Collaboration (ARCC) model for implementation and sustainability of EBP
5. The Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS) framework
6. The Clinical Scholar model
7. The Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice model
8. The ACE Star Model of Knowledge Transformation

Rubric:

The selected model:

• Selects one of the EBP common models

Models clarity and conciseness

• Proficiently analyzes the clarity and conciseness of the models concepts and organization and addresses in details how they can support answering their PICOT question

Models diagrammatic representation

• Thoroughly evaluates the model’s diagram, addressing how it enhances understanding and applies to the PICOT question, while discussing its clarity, comprehensiveness, and relevance for clinical practice or evidence-based implementation.

Models comprehensiveness

• Evaluates how well the model addresses all aspects of the PICOT question (population, intervention, comparison, outcome, time) and explains its broad, holistic approach to solving the clinical problem.

Models easiness

• Thoroughly assesses the ease of understanding and applying the model in clinical practice. Considers factors such as simplicity, user-friendliness, and accessibility for healthcare professionals.

Models flexibility

• Examines the models adaptability across various clinical settings or populations. Describes how the model can be modified or applied to different situations and still maintain its effectiveness.

Models use and popularity

• Provides a detailed evaluation of the models current use in practice and its popularity among healthcare professionals. References evidence of its widespread adoption or endorsement in research or clinical settings.

PICOT question: In hospitalized older adults aged 65 years and older (P), how does implementation of nurse-led multifactorial fall prevention programs, including individualized risk assessments and tailored interventions (I), compared to standard fall precautions without risk assessment (C), affect fall rates (O) within the time of hospital stay (T)?
