Chapter 1. Primary Care in the Twenty-First Century: A Circle of Caring
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
1. A nurse has conducted a literature review in an effort to identify the effect of hand
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
washing on the incidence of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections in acute care
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
settings. An article presented findings at a level of significance of <0.01. This
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
indicatesthat `? `?
A) The control group and the experimental group were more than 99% similar.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
B) The findings of the study have less than 1% chance of being attributable to chance.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
C) The effects of the intervention were nearly zero.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `?
D) The clinical significance of the findings was less than 1:100.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
Ans: B `?
Feedback: The level of significance is the level at which the researcher believes that the
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
study results most likely represent a no chance event. A level of significance of <0.01
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
indicates thatthere is less than 1% probability that the result is due to chance.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
2. A nurse has expressed skepticism to a colleague about the value of nursing research,
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
claiming that nursing research has little relevance to practice. How can the nurses colleague
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
bestdefend the importance of nursing research?
`? `? `? `? `? `? `?
A) The existence of nursing research means that nurses are now able to access federal
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
grantmoney, something that didnt use to be the case.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
, B) Nursing research has allowed the development of masters and doctoral programs and
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
hasgreatly increased the credibility of the profession.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
C) The growth of nursing research has caused nursing to be viewed as a true
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
profession,rather than simply as a trade or a skill.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
D) The application of nursing research has the potential to improve nursing practice
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
andpatient outcomes.
`? `? `?
Ans: D `?
Feedback: The greatest value of nursing research lies in the potential to improve practice and,
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
ultimately, to improve patient outcomes. This supersedes the contributions of nursing research
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
toeducation programs, grant funding, or the public view of the profession.
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
3. A nurse has read a qualitative research study in order to understand the lived experience
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
of parents who have a neonatal loss. Which of the following questions should the nurse
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
prioritizewhen appraising the results of this study?
`? `? `? `? `? `? `? `?
A) How well did the authors capture the personal experiences of these parents?
