“…In the literature, the identification of such critical areas for research has been via opinions and consensus that have been sought from nurses concerning what should be the nursing research priorities for the area of practice in which they engage 16–26 . Globally, various studies have been conducted within the last 15–20 years seeking to identify nursing research priorities.…”

Executive summaryBackground This report describes the results of a study designed to identify research priorities in nursing arising out of the analysis of 22 systematic review reports published by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) from 1998 to 2002. A feature of the systematic review of evidence is the noticeable lack of high-quality evidence to support a large proportion of nursing interventions and activities. Systematic review topics are selected as areas of concern about practice by nurses comprising the individual and corporate membership of JBI at Professional Advisory Forums and meetings held annually throughout Australia and internationally in conjunction with JBI's collaborating centres. Such selection prioritises nurses' views about what 'matters in their daily practice'. Objective and MethodsThe study comprised a content analysis of the 22 systematic review reports and set out to: • identify any striking gaps in evidence for frequently used practices; • generate research questions to address the gaps; and • suggest research approaches appropriate to the research questions generated. ResultsThe results of the analysis identified in excess of 200 important gaps in the evidence base available for nursing practice in relation to the 22 discrete areas of practice examined. Recommendations included the wide dissemination of this report to promote the results of systematic reviews as an important resource in setting research priorities. Policy makers, the Commonwealth Government, State and Territory Governments, research funding bodies, organisations and individuals involved in decision-making and the funding of research in health care have received little substantive direction in setting priorities for nursing research. This lack of well founded advice is evidenced by the incredibly low level of support for nursing research in Australia and the large number of gaps in evidence for nursing practice. A Averis & A PearsonConclusions Knowledge transfer -of evidence into practice -has the potential to improve health outcomes, but the delivery of 'best practice' care based on sound evidence is dependant upon the generation of evidence to fill systematically identified gaps.

The purpose of this study was to identify priorities for nursing research in the field of gastroenterology nursing using the Delphi technique. A general objective was to provide empirically based information to guide the development of a nursing research program within a specialty nursing organization focused on gastroenterology. Via a two-round Delphi survey, priority research questions were identified from a sample of the membership. Those research questions are presented as well as demographic information of the sample.

THE PURPOSE OF this project was to increase research activities of practicing nurses at one large healthcare facility. The members of the nursing research committee at this institution planned a participatory learning experience with the goal of increasing the nurses' self-efficacy toward conducting research. Increased self-efficacy was the impetus for stimulating increased research activities by the nurses. Measurable outcomes of this project included a significant increase in the participants' self-efficacy and implementation of a number of research projects. The Delphi technique proved useful in identifying nursing research priorities as well as in stimulating nurses to initiate and conduct clinical research. Project implementation and evaluation are described to help practicing nurses and their employers in pursuit of the same goal.
