Clinical Practice Guidelines

Clinical practice guidelines provide evidence-based best practices to improve patient care in emergency nursing. They help nurses respond to changes in healthcare and regulations. Guidelines are developed through a four stage process: a literature review identifies the latest scientific evidence on therapeutic approaches; recommendations are created with stakeholder input; experts assess the guidelines for accuracy and practicality; and they are revised over time to incorporate new information. Research and applying evidence into practice helps ensure high-quality care, though studies show there is still room for improvement in consistent implementation.

Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are evidence-based documents which encourage the

implementation of current evidence to day-to-day emergency nursing practices. CPGs provide


guidelines focused on a comprehensive evaluation and literature relevant study on a therapeutic
topic. Helps nurses determine effective best practices and improve patient care. Also helps
nursing respond to changes in the healthcare environment, patient populations and government
regulations. Research evidence and clinical practice are important for the secure, open, reliable
and productive delivery of healthcare and for meeting patient, family and social standards.
Nurses are inquisitive, think deeply about the quality of their patients, and want to learn their
patients' alternative treatments—all of which render them ideally appropriate for study. Research
provides the foundation for high-quality, evidence-based nursing care. Guideline development
has 4 stages. First, guidelines will be focused on the latest existing scientific data and a
systematic literature review is then carried out to find findings from empirical trials on the
appropriateness and efficacy of various therapeutic approaches. “Evidence-based care” comes
from researchers. The inconsistent application of the research evidence into action reflects health
science and clinical experience. Since, the first studies in this review were conducted and the
increasing emphasis in the past 15 years on evidence-based practice. Despite the extensive
advocacy of evidence-based clinical practice, the emergence of new translational study positions
for nurses in major medical centers and payment programs for Medicare throughout the United
States related to particular evidence-based activities, studies continue to suggest much room for
improvement. Then, using the study data, recommendations are created, typically by some sort
of small group work, with participation from as many stakeholders as possible. Despite the
methodological problems present in the majority of experiments, nurses utilize study in their
work. There is a strong need to implement consistent data use metrics and detailed well-designed
studies investigating the usage of testing by nurses and their effect on patient results. Next, the
Guideline is assessed by asking for transparency, internal accuracy and acceptability from
experts not involved in the Guideline creation. The rule will then be checked to see whether it is
practical for usage in daily practice in specified health care settings. As such, work undertaken
by nurses is widely regarded as a vital avenue for realistic and efficient approaches to enhance
patient care. However, well-established obstacles remain to undertaking and turning results of
work into action. Finally, the guideline will be revised over a given period of time, and updated
to take new information into account.
