Use of scientific evidence in care planning among nursing professionals: A Systematic Review
Abstract
Objective: To determine the use of the available scientific evidence among nursing professionals to plan the provision of care.
Methods: A search was conducted in the following databases: ProQuest, PubMed, Science Direct, MEDLINE. Nine articles, published between 2011 and 2021 in English and Spanish, were selected for the analysis according to the PRISMA statement.
Results: The search yielded a result of 356 articles, 9 of which met selection criteria. The included articles do not measure the level of utilization of Evidence-Based Nursing (EBN) for care planning, however, facilitating factors and barriers to its implementation are described.
Conclusion: The available evidence is not sufficient to determine the utilization of evidence by nursing professionals in the provision of care. Barriers to its utilization, of both personal and organizational nature are described. In order to ensure an adequate implementation of EBN, it is necessary to adopt effective strategies in clinical settings and multidisciplinary efforts need to be made to promote its utilization. It is necessary to conduct higher-quality studies to produce reliable data that demonstrate the role that knowledge, the level of research training and institutional support have on the utilization of EBN in the clinical practice.
