Implementation of a research-based bachelor thesis in nursing – process and experiencesBackground: Ability to ensure quality and to evaluate own practice of nursing, is essential in order to practice a research based health care. An increase of research skills among future nurses, are thus central. The aim of this paper is to describe experiences connected with implementation of a new research-based model for examination of bachelor thesis in bachelor degree in nursing at Molde University College, Norway.Results: The curriculum has gained a clearer focus on science and research, and informative guidelines have been developed. The final bachelor thesis is now consisting of a systematic literature review based on scientific articles. The auditorium as a learning arena in the form of a thesis defence contributes to awareness of importance of research for nursing.Conclusion: The introduction of a new research based model for the bachelor thesis has strengthened the academic environment. Currently, Bachelor of Nursing has a clear focus on research and development. Newly qualified nurses are well placed to work knowledge based and to participate in development of clinical practice.

The Impact

Abstract Rationale: This research has been conducted to facilitate evidence-informed policymaking and to help health-care policymakers in Saudi Arabia to decide whether or not a sustainable investment in the CPG industry is socially and economically viable. Objectives: The objective is to investigate: (i) whether the clinical practice guidelines help to improve clinical practice and save costs, and (ii) the views in Saudi Arabia about implementing clinical practice guidelines. Methods: The study employs mixed methods, including: (i) a literature review to evaluate the benefits of implementing clinical practice guidelines, and (ii) an online survey to investigate views about implementing the guidelines' benefits. Results: (i) The clinical practice guidelines do help in improving clinical practice, but the evidence about their impact on saving costs is insufficient in the literature. (ii) The survey demonstrated a high level of awareness among health system actors in Saudi Arabia of the importance of having nationally unified clinical guidelines. Recommendations: Investment in the clinical practice guidelines industry seems socially and economically viable.

Purpose This clinical focus article provides an overview of clinical models currently being used for the provision of comprehensive aural rehabilitation (AR) for adults with cochlear implants (CIs) in the Unites States. Method Clinical AR models utilized by hearing health care providers from nine clinics across the United States were discussed with regard to interprofessional AR practice patterns in the adult CI population. The clinical models were presented in the context of existing knowledge and gaps in the literature. Future directions were proposed for optimizing the provision of AR for the adult CI patient population. Findings/Conclusions There is a general agreement that AR is an integral part of hearing health care for adults with CIs. While the provision of AR is feasible in different clinical practice settings, service delivery models are variable across hearing health care professionals and settings. AR may include interprofessional collaboration among surgeons, audiologists, and speech-language pathologists with varying roles based on the characteristics of a particular setting. Despite various existing barriers, the clinical practice patterns identified here provide a starting point toward a more standard approach to comprehensive AR for adults with CIs.
