Background: Identifying and removing the barriers faced by speech and language pathologists (SLPs) for implementing evidence-based practice (EBP) can facilitate its administration among Iranian SLPs. Objectives: The present study was conducted to explore the barriers to implementing EBP among Iranian SLPs. Methods: A total of 14 SLPs were recruited using a purposive sampling technique. Semi-structured interviews were conducted for data collection. The interviews continued until data saturation was reached. Data were recorded and transcribed verbatim, and qualitative content analysis was used for data analysis. Results: Data analysis yielded three themes, including individual factors, organizational (workplace) factors, and extra organizational factors, and 13 subthemes. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that Iranian SLPs are faced with several barriers to using EBP in clinical practice, which may be related to both the SLPs themselves and their surroundings. These barriers should be considered by policymakers, administrators, teachers, and rehabilitation team members to facilitate the implementation of EBP by SLPs.

The aim of the present follow-up study was to describe staff perceptions of enabling and inhibitory factors that influenced implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) for urinary incontinence in a nursing home. Focus-group interviews were carried out and the text was deductively analyzed using the PARIHS framework and qualitative content analysis. Factors believed to be most enabling for implementation were EBP being considered as relevant and as a social process, and visiting the lavatory being considered as a right for all. One determinant of successful implementation was having clear and involved leaders who had a continuous positive attitude toward EBP and demanded results. Staff members who were given the role of continence agents were important facilitators. The factor believed to inhibit implementation most was staff having to carry out pad-weight tests before prescribing individual incontinence aids. Evidence-based practice offers a successful concept for caring for older people with urinary incontinence in nursing homes. Evidence-based practice should be spread, both local and more widely.

Objective: to examine the usage and content of the Global Alliance for Nursing and Midwifery (GANM) discussion forum in relation to nursing and midwifery education and practice. Method: a qualitative conventional content analysis was performed. Subject lines from 1689 discussion board threads were extracted and used as the unit of analysis. A-priori codes were developed based on topical relevance (e.g. maternal health) and typical discussion board usage (e.g. announcing educational opportunities). Emerging codes were further identified while coding the data (e.g. infectious diseases). Results: the GANM discussion forum was used most frequently for information exchange (43.8%), such as dissemination of new information on evidence-based practice, and to announce educational opportunities (24.8%). The most frequently discussed topics were nursing (14.2%; e.g. the role of nurses in primary care, nursing education, etc.) and maternal health (13.8%; e.g. postpartum care, maternal mortality, etc.). Infectious diseases were discussed in 9% of threads, 40% of which concerned the current coronavirus pandemic. Conclusion: findings reinforce the utility of the GANM as a platform for professional development and continuing education. As a platform for disseminating empirical research, the GANM can be leveraged to have an influence on real-world, evidence-based practice.
