MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Nurses with a bachelor’s degree in nursing can participate in the implementation of research into practice. This means that the BSN nurse:
a. develops evidence-based guidelines.
b. designs research studies on which protocols may be based.
c. evaluates and revises evidence-based protocols.
d. reads and critically appraises existing studies.
ANS: D
Nurses with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree have knowledge of the research process and skills in reading and critically appraising studies. They use the best research evidence in practice with guidance. Nurses with a BSN also assist with problem identification and data collection. Nurses with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) critically appraise and synthesize findings from studies to revise or develop protocols, algorithms, or policies for use in practice. Nurses with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) develop, implement, and evaluate evidence-based guidelines. Nurses with a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) assume a major role in conducting research.
