Identify barriers to implementing EBP in a clinical setting.

/in /by

Can you write a reply to this post. thanks

  1. Identify an evidence-based topic.

For my evidenced based topics, I chose Prevention and Management of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM).

2.Identify potential BSN care practices.

Some of the nursing care practices that I am interested in using for my EBP project + Paper #2 + EBP Poster are:

Early screening and diagnosis of GDM to prevent maternal and fetal complications.

Referral to nutritional counseling to develop a plan for lifestyle modifications.

Routine blood glucose monitoring to maintain glycemic control.

Providing education on GDM and related complications, such as hypertension and macrosomia.

Follow-up screening during the postpartum period.

  1. Identify barriers to implementing EBP in a clinical setting.

GDM is a common metabolic condition that can occur during pregnancy, especially for women who are high risk. There are no barriers to implementing EBP in the clinical setting because there are clinical practice guidelines in place to managing GDM. Perhaps a major barrier to implementing EBP is language barriers, especially if there are no interpretation services available. As a nurse, I must respect the client’s cultural values when implementing certain practices.

  1. Which types of activities will you use for selecting your topic?

The main activity that I will use for selecting my topic is research using EBP articles and journals. I will also use my maternity textbook for additional information.

Discuss a variety of psychiatric assessment tools that have been utilized for patients with varying mental health disorders.

Respond to your colleagues by comparing your assessment tool to theirs.(My assessment tool is the Michigan Alcohol Screening Test)

Colleagues Post
This week we have been tasked to thoroughly examine and discuss a variety of psychiatric assessment tools that have been utilized for patients with varying mental health disorders. This week I have been assigned to examine the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), second revision. According to Wheeler (2014), assessment tools in the mental health setting are incredibly important not only for the practitioner but the patient as well, as these tools can be used to establish rapport between client and provider, provide reassurance for the patient and identify a patient in distress and ensure their follow-up.

The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was created by a neuropsychiatry expert Aaron Beck and colleagues in 1972 as screening tool for patients that measures symptom severity of depression and can be self-administered and scored (Stark, 2019). In nearly every article identified for this research, this tool was described as one of the most widely used instruments used for depression severity. According to Georgi et al (2019), the authors of the scale stated the purpose of the scale is to measure intensity of depression, not differentiate between mental disorders. While this tool has been around for many years and has gained significant favor in the psychologic community, Yin et al (2000) performed a meta-analysis to verify reliability and discovered that only seven and a half percent of articles pertaining to the BDI demonstrated consistent reliability. Yin et al (2000) further explained that for patients with substance use disorders, the BDI reliability was even worse. Additionally, Georgi et al (2019) reported significant differences when the BDI was conducted in interview format versus self-reported and scored. However, newer studies have been completed showing reliability and validity of the BDI in other settings and situations. The BDI with two-factor somatic-affective and cognitive model demonstrated reliability and validity when administered in hospital setting for families of chronically ill children (Toledano-Toledano & Contreras-Valdez, 2018). Additionally, Toledano-Toledano and Contreras-Valdez (2018) explain that the BDI was less complicated than other depression severity measurement tools, making the BDI preferential among other tools. The BDI also has advantages over other screening and measurement tools because of its ease of use, inexpensive nature, and can be used to track symptom severity over time and gauge response to treatment modalities (Dalley et al, 2019). Clinicians can be confident that this tool is reliable but should use more than one tool if necessary, to ensure patient safety.

Reflect on how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence may help fortify nursing informatics as a specialty by leading to increased impact on patient outcomes or patient care efficiencies.

/in /by

In the Discussion for this module, you considered the interaction of nurse informaticists with other specialists to ensure successful care. How is that success determined?

Patient outcomes and the fulfillment of care goals is one of the major ways that healthcare success is measured. Measuring patient outcomes results in the generation of data that can be used to improve results. Nursing informatics can have a significant part in this process and can help to improve outcomes by improving processes, identifying at-risk patients, and enhancing efficiency.

To Prepare:

1). Review the concepts of technology application as presented in the Resources.
2). Reflect on how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence may help fortify nursing informatics as a specialty by leading to increased impact on patient outcomes or patient care efficiencies.

The Assignment: (4-5 pages)

In a 4- to 5-page project proposal written to the leadership of your healthcare organization, propose a nursing informatics project for your organization that you advocate to improve patient outcomes or patient-care efficiency. Your project proposal should include the following:

1). Describe the project you propose.
2). Identify the stakeholders impacted by this project.
3). Explain the patient outcome(s) or patient-care efficiencies this project is aimed at improving and explain how this improvement would occur. Be specific and provide examples.
4). Identify the technologies required to implement this project and explain why.
5). Identify the project team (by roles) and explain how you would incorporate the nurse informaticist in the project team.

Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.

/in /by

The term “knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter Drucker in his book, The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services. Does this sound familiar?

Nurses are very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.

In this Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker. You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of nurse as knowledge worker.

To Prepare:

1). Review the concepts of informatics as presented in the Resources.
2). Reflect on the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
3). Consider how knowledge may be informed by data that is collected/accessed.The Assignment:

A). Explain the concept of a knowledge worker.
B). Define and explain nursing informatics and highlight the role of a nurse leader as a knowledge worker.
C). Develop a simple infographic to help explain these concepts.
D). Your PowerPoint should Include the hypothetical scenario you originally shared in the Discussion Forum. Include your examination of the data that you could use, how the data might be accessed/collected, and what knowledge might be derived from that data.
