Nursing Research & Evidence-Based Practice
Module 4 Individual Case Study Discussion Questions Part 2
We are looking at data analysis, evidence-based practice and quality improvement during this module. There are many resources to use to assist us in improving the quality of care. These resources contain data that we must analyze. We also know from QSEN that case studies are a way of providing in-depth evidence-based discussion of clinical topics that can be used to guide practice.
Develop/write/invent a case study that will demonstrate a nurse incurring a problem and using an innovation(s) to improve patient care. So think of this as the reverse of how things would normally go….problem incurred, case study evolves….then finding the literature, the experts, the EBP to improve quality.
Instead you have the research and innovation to fix or improve the problem but not the case that initiated the whole cascade towards quality improvement.
There are several innovations to look at in the literature and EBP, so choose something you are interested in, get creative in developing your real life scenario or case. Use scholarly research/references to assist you in creating your case study. For this assignment you MUST create your own case study, do not copy and paste one found on the internet or you will receive a zero.
Beyond writing your case study, please
State the innovation being used, and the
Problem you are trying to fix.
