Making Sense of Evidence-based Practice for Nursing by Debra Evans

This straightforward guide to evidence-based practice helps you to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to challenge practice that is not underpinned by research and to increase your understanding of the processes involved in accessing, appraising, and synthesizing good quality research. Providing a basic introduction to both quantitative and qualitative research, Debra Evans explores how to find out “what works best”, the impact of something, and what requires more research. Readers will also learn the basic rules used in study design and statistics presented in research articles and systematic reviews. Each simply written chapter includes relevant theory, diagrams and tables, case studies, exercises, boxed summaries, and further reading. Packed with examples from practice across the nursing fields and at different levels, this book is essential for nurses – both student and qualified – who want to increase their confidence when it comes to research appraisal and evidence-based practice processes.

"I think Dr Evans has completed an extremely difficult task in producing a highly accessible textbook on evidence based practice that will have great impact on a wide range of studentsIt is a welcome addition to the literature, and I am sure would be an important addition to reading list on the majority of undergraduate and postgraduate nursing programs."

- Professor Mark Radford, PhD, RN- Chief Nurse, HEE & Deputy Chief Nursing Officer (England)
