About

Randomized study of educational intervention, comparative and prospective about Evidence Based Practice (EBP) and its application by clinical nurses in the implementation of EBP projects in search of best practice in nursing processes.

Full description

Evidence Based Practice (EBP) has become an important issue in nursing. It is considered a process consisting of sequential steps. Multiple barriers are found, among them, time restriction, lack of personal motivation, professional resistance to research and inadequate knowledge. The proposal of this study is to provide Brazilian clinical nurses with tools to be used as a guide, with a structured process in stages as a facilitator of the implementation of EBP projects in search of best practice in nursing processes, for this the investigators will verify the adequacy of authorized translation of the Portuguese version of the Johns Hopkins Center for Evidence-Based Practice guide tools and whether these tools are facilitators in structuring and describing an EBP project from the perspective of the clinical nurse, in addition to verifying whether the EBP project met the requirements of preparation from the perspective of the researcher.
