Global HOPE LEARNING ACADEMY: Essentials of Evidence-Based Practice
Welcome to the LEARNING ACADEMY, part of Global Hematology and Oncology Pediatric Excellence (HOPE) at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston, Texas. Global HOPE provides care to children with cancer and hematology disorders in Sub-Saharan Africa. This multidisciplinary course is designed to teach the steps of the evidence-based review process and cultivate a spirit of inquiry. During the course, participants will craft a clinical question in PICOT format, develop a search strategy including relevant databases, critically appraise and synthesize the evidence, and translate those findings into practice. Students will learn to critically appraise and synthesize evidence for translation into practice.
DISCLAIMERAll content in this course is for educational purposes and does not constitute medical advice. Information is not to be used for diagnosing or treating a specific patient and does not substitute for professional care. Students should be aware that there may different practices throughout Sub-Saharan Africa and their institutional guidelines for nursing care should be followed.
As a participant in this course, I understand that the material is the property of Global HOPE and is not to be used for other purposes.
