Professional nurses could be prepared through professional nursing programs. Professional nursing program is part of the nursing education program. One of the competencies required to be professional nurses is implementing evidence-based practice (EBP) to explore the best nursing interventions for patients to get optimal outcome. Nursing students have learned EBP during bachelor degree by analysis case using the EBP method. However, evaluation related  students' understanding of the method and its application of EBP to the clinical practice was none. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of knowledge with student competency in the implementation of evidence based practice (EBP) to managed patients in the medical surgical nursing stage. This research is quantitative research. The sample in this study was 120 nursing students who were at professional nursing program that were recruited using total sampling technique. The instrument used is the Evidence Based Practice Questionnaire (EBPQ) questionnaire. The results showed that more than half of the respondents had high knowledge (68%), and high competence (49%). This study shows a meaningful relationship between knowledge of student competence in applying EBP (r = .6070, p <0.01). The findings of this study are important for recommendations related to developing teaching materials in nursing education related to for providing the best service for patients.

<p>A qualitative study of nursing students' experience of new learning activities in critical evaluation of quantitative research articles<strong> </strong></p><p>Evidence-Based Practice is a vital part of professional health care and nurses need to have knowledge of research. This article presents nursing students' experience with new learning activities in critical evaluation of quantitative research articles. This experience was studied in focus group interviews with second-year nursing students. The students described it as challenging to understand the various quantitative designs and statistical methods. Specific requirements in the learning activities, constructive feedback, relevance and conformity between learning activities and assessments seem to promote the targeted learning outcome. How students' knowledge and skills are received in practice seems to affect students' attitudes and behavior in relation to the application of research results. To increase evidence-based practice there appears to be a need for innovative processes that can strengthen the cooperation between the nursing education and the field of practice.</p>

Professional nurses, one of the human resources in the health field, have an obligation to carry out the nursing process, especially nursing based on scientific evidence. This study’s aim was to describe the knowledge, attitudes, implementation towards evidence-based practice and its barriers in the Hospital. A quantitative research with descriptive approach was conducted in the Dr. M. Djamil Hospital Padang. A consecutive sampling technique was utilized with 139 respondents being selected and only 90 respondents completely filled in the questionnaires. The instruments used were Evidence-Based Practice Questionnaire (EBPQ) and BARRIERS Scale. Characteristics of respondents were 70.0% diploma education, mean (SD) age was 36.7 (7.95) years and 13.35 (8.37) years working time. The average EBP-related attribute score was higher than the average score of EBP knowledge/understanding, understanding of research terms, confidence and practice towards EBP. There is a need to improve knowledge and understanding of EBP and research and overcome the obstacles of EBP implementation in the practice of nursing service.

Professional nurses are called to provide nursing care using an evidence-based approach. Health-care professionals are challenged to break away from old traditions and search for ways to improve health. Evidence-based practice (EBP) must be threaded throughout nursing curricula to produce critically-thinking professional nurses who will be meeting new and significant health-care challenges. Nursing education must be grounded in the translation of current evidence into practice. Nurse educators must acknowledge the obstacles faced when teaching concepts of research to students who have chosen a practice-focused career. The words evidence-based practice may be intimidating to nursing students. Nurse educators must shift this paradigm to invite students to realize that EBP is an integral component of modern health care that bridges the gap between health-care practices and improved patient outcomes. Faculty in a baccalaureate Adult Health course developed a unique approach inviting students to apply evidence to their student clinical experiences. Survey results showed that this innovative approach increased students' “excellent” or “good” understanding toward EBP concepts from pre-implementation scores of 46% to post-implementation scores of 94%. This active learning strategy allows students to “walk the walk” of EBP rather than simply listen to the “talk.”

Background: The perceptions of core professional nursing values of men in baccalaureate nursing programs are poorly understood. Objective: The study purpose was to understand and interpret the meaning of core professional nursing values to male baccalaureate nursing students. Research design and context: One-to-one interviews were conducted with male nursing students from a public university in the Midwest, following interpretive phenomenology. Ethical considerations: Measures to protect participants included obtaining Institutional Review Board approval, obtaining signed informed consent, and maintaining confidentiality. Findings: The study revealed five themes and several subthemes under an overarching finding of caring. Acquisition of professional nursing values began prior to the nursing program and continued to varying degrees throughout the program. Discussion: Several implications are offered for nursing education, nursing practice, research, and public policy. These include identification of common values, teaching-learning strategies, inclusive environments, teamwork, and conflict resolution. Conclusion: Caring was revealed using a metaphor of a puzzle.

(1) Background: evidence-based nursing has been widely adopted by healthcare facilitators, and it is predicated on the connection between research evidence and clinical practice. The knowledge and implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) depend on a variety of long-established barriers and attitudes. The purpose of this study was to translate and validate the Greek version of the evidence-based practice competence questionnaire (EBP-COQ) and test it on a sample of Greek undergraduate nursing students. (2) Methods: a cross-sectional analysis was conducted on data obtained between November 2018 and January 2019. A convenience sample of 320 Greek undergraduate nursing students participated in a survey to examine the psychometric properties of the tool. The reliability and validity of the tool was examined. Cronbach’s coefficient alpha was used to determine the scale’s internal consistency reliability. (3) Results: the EBP-COQ was translated and validated. The estimated Cronbach’s alpha was higher than 0.70 for all scales. Of the participants, 22.5% were men and 77.5% were women, while 31% of them were in their final year of nursing education. A total of 61% of the students stated that they had not participated in an EBP seminar in the past. High Spearman’s correlation coefficients were found for “Knowledge in EBP” with “Personal attitude towards EBP” (rs = 0.329, p < 0.001). (4) Conclusions: the Greek version of the EBP-COQ is a valid instrument that can be used in the Greek population. It provides information about attitude, knowledge and skills in the EBP approach.

AbstractObjectiveJournal clubs are accepted as an effective strategy for promoting evidence-based practice (EBP). However, journal clubs are underutilized in nursing education, and little is known about the impact of extracurricular, student-led journal clubs on EBP implementation among baccalaureate nursing students. The purpose of this study was to estimate the impact of journal club attendance on EBP implementation.MethodsA web-based survey was conducted in April 2019 following eight sessions of monthly journal club among senior nursing students (n=78).ResultsFifteen students attended four or more extracurricular, student-led journal club sessions (19.2%). EBP practice score was significantly higher among frequent journal club attendees. In multivariate analysis, journal club attendance was the significant predictor of EBP practice (β=0.34; p=0.006).ConclusionGraduating senior nursing students who attend extracurricular, student-led journal club sessions are more likely to carry out EBP practice. Participation in journal clubs may help increase their EBP competencies.

For more than 30 years, research utilization has been described in the literature, which predated the heightened interest and demand for using best research evidence in nursing practice. Fernandez, Tran, Ramjan, Ho, and Gill identified evidence-based practice (EBP) as a methodical approach for using the best research evidence when making clinical judgments, together with patient preference and clinical experience. Furthermore, EBP was defined as the use of evidence-based knowledge in the clinical situations, and its usage should be one of the most important educational objectives in nursing education as well as one of the important skills for registered nurses worldwide. In nursing education, students must be taught to appreciate the importance of utilizing best evidence in their nursing practice, especially during their clinical time in the healthcare setting. It is hoped that if they appreciate EBP that when they become nurses, they will play an important role in the decision-making related to patient care, along with other medical and allied health professionals.

Introduction: Professional nurses should have adequate competency in order to apply Evidence Based Practice (EBP) in their nursing care. However, many nurses provide nursing care based on traditions, habits and personal experience. Less confidence in the feeling of nurses about their competency when employing EBP could inhibit successful EBP implementation in nursing care. Therefore, introducing and applying EBP during clinical placements in the Ners program is essential to form a professional attitude and to provide a basic level of experience when applying EBP in patient care. However, the self-efficacy and competence of the students when applying EBP has not yet been evaluated properly and there is little known about the nursing students’ competences and self-efficacy toward EBP implementation during clinical practice. Thus, the study aims to describe the self-efficacy and competency of nursing students toward the implementation of EBP, while also investigating the relationship between self-efficacy and the competency of nursing students in the implementation of EBP.Methods: This descriptive correlational study involved 120 nursing students who were actively registered on the Ners program 2016/2017. The data was collected by using the self-reporting Evidence-Based Practice Questionnaire (EBPQ), which was then analysed descriptively and inferentially using statistics.Results: The results of this study revealed that more than half (55%) of the participants had a high score of self-efficacy and almost half (49%) were categorised as having a high competence when implementing EBP. The self-efficacy score was significantly correlated to the score of competency (r = 0.607, p < 0.01).Conclusion: This study recommends that the development of the students’ competence in implementing EBP is essential to promote self-efficacy when applying EBP, and vice versa.

Introduction: Cultural competency is an integral component in undergraduate nursing education to provide patient-centered care and addressing patients’ cultural differences. Students need to consider the prevalence of alcohol and other drug use/misuse in patients from all cultures. This project combines cultural competency education, simulation, and educating students to use screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment for alcohol and other drug use. Method: Culturally diverse simulation scenarios were developed and used in the simulation lab with students to reduce stigma surrounding other cultures while learning an evidence-based practice to screen and intervene with patients who use/misuse substances. Results: Results show students value simulation and 91% of the students felt that they were able to apply culturally competent knowledge after the simulation experience. Discussion: Cultural competency principles can be embedded in teaching the broader evidence-based practice of screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment with undergraduate students. This is a replicable teaching methodology that could be adapted in other schools of nursing.

Abstract Few nursing students show preference in working with older adults. The purpose of this study was to review the U.S. nursing education evidence-based literature to determine curricula innovation to positively influence preference for working with older adults. CINAHL, Medline, Ovid Emcare, PsychInfo, and PubMed databases were searched for relevant U.S studies published between 2009 and 2020 using the search terms “nursing students”, “geriatrics OR gerontology OR older adults OR elderly OR aging”, “career OR work”, and “choice OR preference OR attitude”. Nine studies were eligible for inclusion. Nursing education may play a role in influencing how students perceive and prefer to work with older adults. Promising interventions include stand-alone gerontology courses, intergenerational service-learning experiences, and clinical experiences with community dwelling older adults. More evidence-based research with larger sample sizes are needed to determine effective nursing education interventions to improve nursing students’ attitude and preference for working with older adults.
