EBP process improvement and initiatives

As we continue to discuss EBP process improvement and EBP initiatives, what do you think is the difference between research, quality improvement and evidence-based practice? Is there a difference or do they support each other? I have included a couple of articles that I found interesting. The articles discuss the different terms and the relationship between EBP, QI and research, and give examples of the similarities and differences that exist.

Nurses care plans

Nurses care plans

The nurse is caring for a 3-year-old pediatric client who has been admitted to the hospital for care secondary to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection and pneumonia. The client is learning to cover their cough and sneeze but does not do it routinely. The child’s mother is with the client most of the time. The client demonstrates fear of the nursing staff by crying when they enter with a mask and gown to provide care for the child, making it difficult to complete assessments of the client’s condition. The mother has requested that staff do not wear masks when entering the room to prevent the child from being fearful. The child demonstrates some respiratory difficulty with mild intercostal retractions and a respiratory rate of 32. Other vital signs include HR 110, Temp 101.2°F. The child is receiving antibiotics intravenously, nebulized breathing treatments, and antipyretics. This is the child’s first hospitalization.
