“…Journal club discussion environments help participants to network and learn different clinical experiences and perspectives from each other. [34,35] Lehna, Berger, Truman, Goldman, and Topp (2010) [36] supported this view. These authors indicated that JCs allowed senior nurses to share their professional experience with their colleagues who had less experience.…”

“…These comfortable and encouraging environments can motivate club participants to contribute to the discussion of how to incorporate article findings into their current practice when applicable. According to Nesbitt and Barton (2014), [35] building environments that promote open, reflective, and collaborative discussions attract nurses to JCs. Evidence gathered in this literature review shows longstanding support for the effectiveness of JCs in enhancing the critical appraisal skills of club participants.…”

Background and objective: Hamad Medical Corporation nurse leaders established nursing journal clubs in 2014 as an important strategy to involve nurses in translating research into practice and as an effort to provide patients with the highest possible standards of care. Since the implementation of journal clubs in Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), evaluative research within HMC has not been conducted to examine the effectiveness of this strategy. The aim of this review was to increase decision makers’ knowledge about the effectiveness of journal clubs in translating knowledge into clinical practice and to provide a framework to guide the development of a survey tool that would aide in the evaluation of nursing journal clubs’ effectiveness at Hamad Medical Corporation. A literature search was conducted as an initial step top guide the development of this tool.Methods: A literature search was conducted yielded 13 studies that evaluated the effectiveness of journal clubs after removing all duplicates and applying the inclusion criteria. The Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool-version 2011 was used to evaluate the quality of the included articles. Data was analyzed and extracted from each study and assembled into a summary table.Results: Four themes related to journal clubs’ effectiveness that are important in translating knowledge into practice: encouraging discussion among healthcare professionals, enhancing critical appraisal skills, promoting evidence-based practice knowledge, and impacting clinical practice.Conclusions: This literature review provides information about the four main interrelated themes that contribute to journal clubs’ effectiveness in translating knowledge into practice. This information would be useful to nurse educators at Hamad Medical Corporation and further utilized as a backdrop to the development of a tool to evaluate Hamad Medical Corporation nurses’ perceptions of journal clubs’ effectiveness.

“…Challenges: Issues related to employees, time and jobs (Sortedahl et al., 2018); Lack of expertise in medical statistics research and interpretation (Whiting, 2015); Lack of interest, lack of motivation, lack of perceived benefits (Wilson et al., 2015); Selecting papers that fatigue the employees (Wilson et al., 2015); Lack of familiarity (this method is not used in many nursing programmes and should be included in nursing curricula) (Nesbitt and Barton, 2014); Nurses may feel vulnerable if they share their views (Nesbitt and Barton, 2014); Lack of cooperation of organisations in the organisation of journal clubs and making changes in work processes (LaMar, 2017); Lack of proper skills or low self-confidence in presenters or participants (Johnson, 2016). …”

Background The journal club has been proposed as a tool to fill the gap between theory and practice using the essential components involved in medical processes and evidence-based practice in many literatures. Aim The present research is an integrative review that combined the existing studies in the field of evidence-based nursing through a journal club. Methods An integrative review was used to conduct the review. We searched the databases during 20102019 to find papers using the keywords journal club, nursing, evidence-based practice. The modified version of Cooper s five-stage integrative review was applied. Results The results were presented in two sections of the benefits and challenges of nursing journal clubs and their Presentations guideline. In the end, a discussion was provided on the effectiveness of journal clubs in the promotion of evidence-based nursing. Conclusions The purpose of the nursing journal club is to review existing literature, discuss the latest information and evidence and identify practical changes required to ultimately improve patient outcomes. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of journal clubs in patient care.

Brown, PhD, MEd, BN, RN T he origins of journal clubs began in the medical profession more than 100 years ago, with the first recorded journal club initiated by Sir William Osler in 1875 (Nesbitt & Barton, 2014). Journal clubs bring health professionals together to discuss research literature and apply this knowledge to clinical practice.…”

It is essential that nurses and midwives can understand and critically evaluate research to ensure the delivery of high-quality evidence-based care. Journal clubs are an educational method that helps to develop research capacity and assist with bridging the gap between research and clinical practice. To maintain competence and remain current with the latest evidence, a commitment to continuing professional education is required. This article describes how a successful journal club led to clinical nurses identifying a gap in their own practice, which resulted in a research project being conducted by the members of the journal club.
