The Evidence-Based Nursing Series is co-published with Sigma
Theta Tau International (STTI). The series focuses on implementing
evidence-based practice in nursing and midwifery and mirrors the
remit of Worldviews on Evidence-Based Nursing, encompassing
clinical practice, administration, research and public policy.
Clinical Context for Evidence-Based Practice provides
insights into the key contextual issues to be considered in the
implementation and assessment of evidence-based practice.
Increasingly, implementation research is demonstrating that for
evidence to be successfully implemented into practice, the context
of practice needs to be considered.
Clinical Context for Evidence-Based Practice addresses
professional, educational, and organizational contextual issues
that impact on the implementation of evidence into practice and the
bringing about of practice change. Practical strategies that have
been used effectively to overcome these contextual issues in a
range of healthcare settings are identified. Specific contextual
issues in different care settings are also addressed e.g. acute
care, primary health care, peri-operative settings, paediatrics,
aged care, mental health, midwifery.
Each chapter is written by an internationally known and
respected author, with experience of developing or reviewing
contextual strategies that have an impact on the implementation and
utilisation of research in practice. They explore how gaining a
better understanding of context made a difference to the
implementation process or outcome and address the potential to
transfer different approaches to a range of healthcare
settings.
