Introduction:
Evidence-based nursing has been raised as a method of health care practice based on the latest findings and observations. As part of professional nursing practice, clinical decision making will also affect the quality of care and nurses can utilize evidence-based nursing for providing an effective care. The present article’s goal was to determine the impact of evidence-based nursing education on nurses’ clinical decision making.
Materials and Methods:
This quasi-experimental and interventional study was performed on 60 nurses who were assigned into 2 groups of control and intervention clinical nursing in 2012. Evidence-based nursing was taught in the intervention group. Data were collected by clinical decision questionnaire, and analyzed by SPSS 17.0.
Results:
Intervention group’s ability for evidence-based clinical decision making was measured before and after intervention by paired t test. The results showed that evidence-based nursing education upgrades nurses’ scores in clinical decision making (p=0.009). Findings revealed that the mean score increased to 86.94 ± 9.92 after the educational intervention. In addition, t test revealed the intervention group’s ability for evidence-based clinical decision making before the intervention did not significantly vary from that of control group
Conclusion:
Evidence-based nursing education enhances nurses’ clinical decision making. It is thus, recommended that recurrent educational courses be included in service training programs to improve nurses’ decision making and performance.
