Research Utilization and Evidence-Based Practice | evidence-based journals
There are specialized journals that use predefined criteria to publish evaluated abstracts of the literature and comment on the methodology of each published study.
Evidence-Based Nursing selects and summarizes the best studies, which have met predefined criteria. These are presented in the form of structured abstracts and are accompanied by expert commentaries.
Special features of this journal include:
- Purpose and Procedure--describes in detail the criteria for selection and review of articles for abstracting.
- EBN Notebook--series of articles that address the process of evidence-based nursing.
- Glossary of Terms--presented on the inside back cover of each issue.
You can find Evidence-Based Nursing in your library. An electronic version is available to NYU and Mount Sinai Levy Library users.
