What method is best for nurses to systematically investigate a clinical issue and integrate evidence-based practice into patient care?

Case studies
Descriptive studies
Translational research
Quantitative studies

The correct answer is: Translational research

Translational research is the best method for nurses to systematically investigate a clinical issue and integrate evidence-based practice into patient care. Translational research focuses on bridging the gap between research findings and their application in clinical practice. It involves taking research evidence and translating it into practical interventions that can be implemented in healthcare settings. This approach helps ensure that the latest evidence-based practices are incorporated into patient care effectively. While case studies, descriptive studies, and quantitative studies can also provide valuable information, they may not always offer the systematic and comprehensive approach that translational research does when it comes to translating evidence into practice in a clinical setting.
