Summary

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.

Detailed 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.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Educational Workshop	The workshop proposes a review of all stages of EBP which includes approaches to clinical care based on science and the quality of evidence, with the ultimate goal of promoting safe and quality care. The workshops comprise one for each group with a total workload of six (6) hours divided into two days, lasting three hours each day. The first day will be a theoretical approach and the second day a practical approach. The workshops with theoretical content and practical classes will be held in rooms of Albert Einstein Hospital. All participants of both educational strategies will answer the same questionnaires.
BEHAVIORAL	Educational Workshop plus J. H. N. EBP Guide Tools	In addition to the workshop. It will follow the same molds as the case of group "Educational Workshop" plus the Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-based Practice guide tools since the beginning of this practical class, when the participant will receive a description of a problem as a basis for elaborating their clinical question, and thus, move on to the next stage. The tools will be offered in the case of this group: question development, evidence level and quality guide, research evidence assessment tool, individual evidence tool, evidence synthesis and recommendation tool, action planning tool and tool dissemination.
