Why the Sources provide the Best Evidence for the Chosen Diagnosis
The sources used are from the most reliable medical databases and were authored by medical experts. Furthermore, some of the sources come from internationally recognized health organizations that have long been trusted to provide reliable medical information. Moreover, the sources chosen were published within the last five years, ensuring that the information is up to date and applicable in practice. The reasons stated above predict the reliability and credibility of the sources and, thus, why they were chosen to impact practice concerning the nursing practical scenario provided.
Conclusion
Caring for patients necessitates knowledge and expertise in nursing and related fields. Apprenticeship or evidence-based literature can be used to gain knowledge and expertise. As a result, it is critical for a nurse to develop research skills that allow them to search for information online and sift through it to find evidence-based practice data to use.
As part of my job, I assist nurses doing clinical rotations in the medical-surgical department to locate evidence-based practice literature they can implement. Using various communication and collaborative strategies, nurses learn about medical databases, information search strategies, and how to assess the information’s relevance, reliability, and credibility.
