Barriers to incorporating EBP include:
a. Nurses lack of research skills in evaluating the quality of research studies.
b. Lack of significant research studies.
c. Insufficient clinical skills of nurses.
d. Inadequate physical assessment skills.
a. Nurses’ lack of research skills in evaluating the quality of research studies.
One of the key barriers to incorporating evidence-based practice (EBP) in nursing is the lack of research skills among nurses in evaluating the quality of research studies.
EBP involves integrating the best available research evidence, clinical expertise, and patient preferences into clinical decision-making. To effectively implement EBP, nurses need to have the ability to critically appraise and evaluate the quality and relevance of research studies.
However, many nurses may lack the necessary skills or training in research methodology, statistical analysis, and critical appraisal of research studies. This can make it challenging for them to assess the validity, reliability, and applicability of the research findings to their clinical practice.
Some specific barriers related to nurses’ lack of research skills in evaluating the quality of research studies include:
As individuals, nurses lack research skills in evaluating the quality of research studies, are isolated from other colleagues who are knowledgeable in research, and often lack the time to visit the library to read research. The other responses are not considered barriers.
