Chapter 1. Primary Care in the Twenty-First Century: A Circle of
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


Caring /f




1. A nurse has conducted a literature review in an effort to identify the effect of handwashing on
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


the incidence of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections in acute care settings. An article
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


presented findings at a level of significance of <0.01. This indicates that
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




A) the control group and the experimental group were more than 99% similar.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




B) the findings of the study have less than 1% chance of being attributable to chance.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




C) the effects of the intervention were nearly zero.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f




D) the clinical significance of the findings was less than 1:100.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




Ans: B /f




Feedback: The level of significance is the level at which the researcher believes that the study
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


results most likely represent a nonchance event. A level of significance of <0.01 indicates that
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


there is less than 1% probability that the result is due to chance.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




2. A nurse has read a qualitative research study in order to understand the lived experience of
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


parents who have a neonatal loss. Which of the following questions should the nurse prioritize
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


when appraising the results of this study?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f




A) How well did the authors capture the personal experiences of these parents?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




B) How well did the authors control for confounding variables that may have affected the findings?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




C) Did the authors use statistical measures that were appropriate to the phenomenon in question?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




D) Were the instruments that the researchers used statistically valid and reliable?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




Ans: A /f




Feedback: Qualitative studies are judged on the basis of how well they capture and convey the
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


subjective experiences of individuals. Statistical measures and variables are not dimensions of
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


a qualitative methodology.
/f /f /f




3. A nurse has expressed skepticism to a colleague about the value of nursing research,
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


claiming that nursing research has little relevance to practice. How can the nurses colleague
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


best defend the importance of nursing research?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f

,A) The existence of nursing research means that nurses are now able to access federal
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


grant money, something that didnt use to be the case.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




B) Nursing research has allowed the development of masters and doctoral programs and
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


has greatly increased the credibility of the profession.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




C) The growth of nursing research has caused nursing to be viewed as a true profession,
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


rather than simply as a trade or a skill.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




D) The application of nursing research has the potential to improve nursing practice
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


and patient outcomes.
/f /f /f




Ans: D /f




Feedback: The greatest value of nursing research lies in the potential to improve practice and,
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


ultimately, to improve patient outcomes. This supersedes the contributions of nursing research to
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


education programs, grant funding, or the public view of the profession.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




4. Tracy is a nurse with a baccalaureate degree who works in the labor and delivery unit of a
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


busy urban hospital. She has noticed that many new mothers abandon breast-feeding their
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


babies when they experience early challenges and wonders what could be done to encourage
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


more women to continue breast-feeding. What role is Tracy most likely to play in a research
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


project that tests an intervention aimed at promoting breast-feeding?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




A) Applying for grant funding for the research project /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




B) Posing the clinical problem to one or more nursing researchers
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




C) Planning the methodology of the research project /f /f /f /f /f /f




D) Carrying out the intervention and submitting the results for
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




/f publication Ans: B /f /f




Feedback: A major role for staff nurses is to identify questions or problems for research.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


/ Grant applications, methodological planning, and publication submission are normally
f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


/ carried out by nurses who have advanced degrees in nursing.
f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




5. A patient signed the informed consent form for a drug trial that was explained to
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


patient by a research assistant. Later, the patient admitted to his nurse that he did not
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


understand the research assistants explanation or his own role in the study. How should this
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


patients nurse respond to this revelation?
/f /f /f /f /f /f




A) Explain the research process to the patient in greater detail.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




B) Describe the details of a randomized controlled trial for the patient.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f

, C) Inform the research assistant that the patients consent is likely invalid.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




D) Explain to the patient that his written consent is now legally binding.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




Ans: C /f




Feedback: Just as the staff nurse is not responsible for medical consent, the staff nurse is not
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


responsible for research consent. If patients who have agreed to participate exhibit ambivalence
/ f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


or uncertainty about participating, do not try to convince them to participate. Ask the
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


/fperson from the research team who is managing consents to speak with concerned patients about
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


the study, even after a patient has signed the consent forms.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




Multiple Selection /f




6. A nurse leader is attempting to increase the awareness of evidence-based practice (EBP) among
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


the nurses on a unit. A nurse who is implementing EBP integrates which of the following?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


(Select all that apply.)
/f /f /f /f




A) Interdisciplinary consensus /f




B) Nursing tradition /f




C) Research studies /f




D) Patient preferences and values /f /f /f




E) Clinicalexpertise /f




/f Ans: C, D, E /f /f /f




Feedback: Fineout-Overholt, Melnyk, Stillwell, and Williamson define EBP as a problem-solving
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


approach to the delivery of healthcare that integrates the best evidence from studies and patient
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


care data with clinician expertise and patient preferences and values.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




Multiple Choice /f




7. Mrs. Mayes is a 73-year-old woman who has a diabetic foot ulcer that has been extremely slow
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


to heal and which now poses a threat of osteomyelitis. The wound care nurse who has been
/ f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


working with Mrs. Mayes applies evidence-based practice (EBP) whenever possible and has
/ f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


proposed the use of maggot therapy to debride necrotic tissue. Mrs. Mayes, however, finds the
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


suggestion repugnant and adamantly opposes this treatment despite the sizable body of evidence
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f


supporting it. How should the nurse reconcile Mrs. Mayes views with the principles of EBP?
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




A) The nurse should explain that reliable and valid research evidence overrides the patients opinion.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f




B) The nurse should explain the evidence to the patient in greater detail.
/f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f /f
