Nội dung chính của bài viết
Tóm tắt
Background: Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients. Nowadays, EBP is a gold standard in caring fields and assessing the quality of nursing education in many countries around the world. Although EBP has many benefits for patients and training, there is a paucity of published research on the beliefs and implementation of EBP in Vietnam for nursing students. Objectives: This study aimed to describe the EBP beliefs and EBP implementation among 45 undergraduate nursing students at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy in February 2022. Materials and methods: A convenience sample of 45 undergraduate nursing students was surveyed in this descriptive, cross–sectional study. The EBP Beliefs Scale (EBPB-S) and the EBP Implementation for Students Scales (EBPI-S) by Fineout-Overholt et al. were employed to collect data regarding the respondents’ beliefs and implementation of EBP, respectively. Data collected include (1) undergraduate nursing students ( 3rd and 4th levels), (2) those who hadn’t joined the EBP course until the research time, and (3) answered enough questions. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data. Results: Half of the respondents had seen their teachers and physicians using EBP, and most believed in the value of using EBP to develop professional competency. 100% of respondents had never used UpToDate databases to find evidence. Undergraduate nursing students weren’t confident applying EBP in clinical practice daily (M=62.89, SD=12.04), and implementing EBP less than once within 8 weeks before the study (M=9.28, SD=8.19). Conclusions: EBP beliefs and implementations were low in undergraduate nursing students. EBP courses should be initiated to increase EBP beliefs and implementation in undergraduate nursing students to advance nursing science, enhance practice for future nurses, and improve patient outcomes.
