Introduction
Assessing the relevance and quality of a scholarly publication is an essential skill for the refinement of evidence-based knowledge. You will learn about specific study methods and designs, and then you will be able to determine the level of evidence a study represents in EBP.
EBP plays an important role throughout the development of your capstone project, including selecting a researchable topic for improvement. For this assessment, you will learn about different appraisal tools, including a rapid appraisal, to apply in the EBP process. You will also learn how to conduct a comprehensive appraisal of qualitative research and how to translate qualitative evidence into practice (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2019).
You will also evaluate interventions from the evidence-based literature for merit and appropriateness. Some examples might include a particular type of evidence-based therapy, a new policy, a quality improvement initiative, et cetera. Consider these questions:
- Would the intervention be an appropriate solution for the clinical or practice problem?
- Is the intervention feasible for the organization?
- What type of resistance might we encounter?
- What impact could the outcome have on the organization?

The purpose of this assessment is to evaluate and critically appraise the available evidence pertaining to the patient safety issue. This is an important step in the evidence-based practice process. The evidence should be appraised for merit, implicit bias, and relevance to the topic. Moreover, evidence should be from current, peer reviewed sources. Clinical practice guidelines and consensus statements are usually updated every 10 years. Consider this guideline when evaluating the current literature.
