RESEARCH
Understanding Nursing Research: Using Research in Evidence-
Based Practice,
4th Edition
Cherie R. Rebar and Carolyn J. Gersch
Develop the knowledge and skills you need to become a research-literate,
evidence-based practitioner with this user-friendly book. Mirroring the way
practicing nurses read research reports, the book begins with a research
article’s conclusion—the section that most directly addresses the clinical
meaning of a research study—and works “backward” through each section in
the research article. Organized around user-centred questions, such as how
conclusions were reached, which patients the conclusions apply to, and how
the study was done, each chapter begins with a clinical case that identifies
the clinical question the nurse is seeking to answer and one or two published
research articles that directly relate to the clinical case.
