MULTIPLE CHOICE

 

  1. Which is the most accurate statement about translational research?
a. Translational research focuses on providing literal and readable translations of research in one of the primary 15 languages in which research is read.
b. Translational research is essentially evidence-based practice.
c. Translational research attempts to discover something useful in basic scientific discoveries.
d. Translational research is applied research based on basic research knowledge.

 

 

ANS:  D

Translational research is an evolving concept that is defined by the NIH as the translation of basic scientific discoveries into practical applications. Basic research discoveries from the laboratory setting need to be tested in studies with humans. In addition, the outcomes from human clinical trials need to be adopted and maintained in clinical practice. Translational research is being encouraged by both medicine and nursing to increase the implementation of evidence-based interventions in practice and to determine if these interventions are effective in producing the outcomes desired in clinical practice.

  1. Nursing is said to be a science and an art. If best research evidence represents the science of nursing, what represents the art?
a. Clinical expertise
b. Patient values and needs
c. Synthesis of best research evidence
d. Eye-hand coordination

 

 

ANS:  A

Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the conscientious integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values and needs in the delivery of quality, cost-effective health care. Best research evidence is largely fact-based and is intended to produce consistent interventions, usually of a technical nature. Patient values and needs emanate from the patient. Clinical expertise provides the art of nursing practice.
