Framework for evidence-based clinical practice
The purpose of Chapter 8 is to provide an overview of qualitative inquiry. The chapter presents common types of qualitative research as well as common types of qualitative data collection. It is our intention that after reading this chapter, you will have a clear understanding of what qualitative research is and what is involved in turning out credible and dependable results through careful, detailed qualitative inquiry. With these points in mind, read and review a peer-reviewed study of qualitative inquiry on a clinical topic of your choice. Review the article to clearly identify the specific clinical question or problem and to answer the five questions listed below. Your goal is to assess, ask, acquire, appraise, and apply evidence to determine if the stated clinical question or problem was answered. The following are the five questions to be answered in your critique:
Does the Introduction section of the paper identify a problem or question in need of study?
Does the Methods section of the paper permit the reader to replicate the study completely?
Does the Results section of the paper provide answers to the question or questions posed in the Introduction section of the paper?
Does the Discussion section of the paper put the results in perspective and offer one or more conclusions based on data observed?
Based on the research evidence, is there any apparent ethical dilemma surrounding this clinical topic or study? If so, use supportive references from professional ethics or a code of conduct relevant to the profession to link/relate the ethical dilemma and to validate your perspective.
