          Nursing is a field filled with numerous  policies and procedures.  To understand these policies and procedures,  the practice of research and knowledge acquisition is essential.  The  method of incorporating proper research into daily practice is called  evidence-based practice (Polit & Beck, 2017).  The goal of using  evidence-based practice is to move away from traditions and ritual by  incorporating tested research evidence that supports clinical practices  (Polit & Beck, 2017).

Summary of Article Search

            Based on the  evidence hierarchy by Polit & Beck (2017), and the levels of  evidence presented in class I was able to evaluate research articles  (Walden University, 2018).  When looking for specific research for my  topic, I searched for the highest level of evidence.  There are three  types of research which are: primary, synthesized or secondary, and  others such as expert opinions or practice questions (Polit & Beck,  2017). 

            My PICOT  question is: In patients with acute pain in the emergency department,  what is the effect of Ketamine use for the reduction of pain compared to  opioid medications during their ED visit? To begin the search, I used  the keywords Ketamine, analgesia, sedation and emergency medicine.   Using these words, I was able to find 408 results.  I further limited my  search to ten years which yielded 297 results.  Finally, I used  systematic reviews, meta-analysis and randomized control trials (RCTs)  for my final search narrowing the articles to 111.  Upon examination of  the articles, I found the articles based on systematic reviews,  meta-analysis and RCTs provided detailed research including abstracts,  methods of trials, results, discussion, limitations, and conclusion.   Each of these sections specifies the purpose of the study in detail. 

          Using this framework for literature review  ensures relevant research is used to answer evidence seeking questions.   Davies (2011) comments, “detailed knowledge of the frameworks enables  the searcher to refine strategies to suit each particular situation  rather than trying to fit a search situation to a framework” (p. 79).   By using a timeframe such as the past ten years, it is easier to see the  relevance of the information to clinical practice today.  An active  literature search will yield the most appropriate information for the  question being posed.

For the following 7 ideas, using the SIX HAT THEORY , comment on these post attempting to provide balance and insight to each of the perspectives given. Using your hat color, my is BLUE. 1. Break into small groups and do an Escape Room 2. Small groups meet every month to work on and create a funny skit to perform at the end of the year for staff, clients etc. 3. Quarterly retreat where staff plays games, ropes course, trust/team-building activities etc. 4. Wellness activity each month, such as: – A step challenge between small groups – Offer yoga or exercise class once a week for a month – A workshop on budgeting – Start a running group – Book club 5. “Favorite Dish Friday:” A few employees sign up once a week to bring in their favorite meals to share accompanied by the recipe—at the end of the year, create a printable recipe book accessible to staff, volunteers, clients 6. Have a talent show once a year 7. Have some sort of laminated icon (or something that can be written on) that employees can pass around to each other. When an employee notices another doing something kind, or going above and beyond (something noteworthy), write it on the icon, and give it to that person. It is then up to that person to do the same for the next person. Keep this rolling for the month, and at a monthly staff meeting, read all the comments out loud. Then start fresh for the next month.

Great post about nursing informatics!  It is fascinating to watch the rate of growth in the area of nursing technology.  You talked about the different specialties in healthcare all working together to get the best outcome for the patient.  Researchers project that nursing informatics will be essential in virtual care delivery and real-time knowledge making by providing information to individualize care in the future (Nagel, Sermeus, & Junger, 2017).  The interconnectedness of healthcare organizations includes continuity of care and promotes well-being.  Information technology has been initiated to improve healthcare quality and provide safe and effective care nationwide (Kossman & Scheidenhelm, 2008).

As healthcare entities, we utilize technology for the majority of our cares.  In the case of an emergency or natural disaster, how do you think this would affect our patient care?  Are we prepared as nurses and physicians to practice without the use of technology?
