Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Evidence-based nursing practice considers the best research evidence on the care topic along with clinical expertise of the nurse and patient preferences.For instance,when determining the frequency of vital sign measurement,the nurse would use available research and nursing judgment (stability,complexity,predictability,vulnerability,and resilience of the patient).Availability of staff and facility equipment and the patient's knowledge of the disease do not factor into evidence-based nursing practices.
