The purpose of this analysis is to better understand what constitutes credibility of journal articles as well as websites. The role of the baccalaureate-prepared nurse in incorporating evidence-based research continues to growth in clinical practice. As quality improvement (QI) measures to reduce safety risks continue to be emphasized, the need for evidence-based models and evidence-based templates is growing. This type of systematic approach to incorporating evidence-based findings allows nurses to make clinical and operational decisions based upon the best available evidence. When the most up-to-date evidence-based findings are utilized, patient-centered care improves outcomes and enhances the patient experience.
Below are several well-known Evidence-Based Practice Models used to guide exploration:
Evidence-Based Practice Models
• Iowa Model of Evidence-Based Practice
• Stetler Model
• Ottawa Model
• PARiHS (Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services) Model
• ACE (Academic Center for Evidence-Based Practice) Star Model
• ARCC (Advancing Research and Clinical Practice Through Close Collaboration) Mode
• John Hopkins Model
• KTA (Knowledge-to-Action) Model
For this assessment:
• Explain the criteria that should be used when determining the credibility of journal articles as well as websites.
• Support your explanations with references to the literature or research articles that describe criteria that should be used to determine credibility.
o Your identification and determination of credibility should be done within the context of your chosen scenario for this assessment. For example, if you choose to use the provided Vila Health scenario, your initial identification of resources should be of resources that will best help address the presented issue. However, if you are locating resources to help provide evidence-based care for the diagnosis/health care issue you identified in the first assessment, you may want to begin your literature and evidence search from the databases that were identified. Any of the three scenario options are acceptable. So, pick the one that most interests you.
