“…The empowerment of nurses is crucial if nurses are to feel that they have autonomy in, and ownership of, their practice. In a USA study, Shively et al . (1997 ) evaluated a community level research utilization intervention and concluded that a key component of the community level intervention may have been the staff empowerment component.…”

It is clear from the nursing literature that there are a number of factors which can impede or facilitate the use of research in practice. It is important that these are identified and addressed, both at local and national levels, if evidence-based practice is to become a reality. This study surveyed nurses' perceptions of barriers to, and facilitators of, research utilization. The Barriers Scale was administered to a convenience sample of 2600 nurses in 23 hospitals in Northern Ireland. The number of completed questionnaires was 1368 (52.6%). The results show that the top barrier was 'The nurse does not feel she/he has enough authority to change patient procedures' followed by 'statistical analyses are not understandable'. Seven out of the top 10 barriers were related to 'setting'. The implications of these and other findings are discussed.

“…Rogers' (1995) theory of ID has been used in nursing to understand the process involved in diffusing an innovation. To date, several studies that are mainly set in acute care have used Rogers' theory of ID to explore BPKU in nursing (e.g., Barta, 1995;Dooks, 2001;Fink et al, 2005;Kitson, 2001;Lee, 2004;Leeman, Jackson & Sandelowski, 2006;Milner et al, 2005;Pearcey & Draper, 1996;Shively et al, 1997). However, empirical studies concerning nurse facilitators and promotion of BPKU among nursing staff are scarce.…”

Using facilitators to assist nurses’ utilization of best-practice knowledge (BPKU) in long-term care settings is considered important in bridging the research-practice gap. However, the role has only just begun to be explored and understood. A theory that provides some insight into this role is Rogers’ Theory of Innovation-Diffusion. This qualitative secondary analysis examined the roles and strategies undertaken by 10 facilitators of BPKU, and compared them to change agent roles and success factors as conceptualized by Rogers. The single emergent facilitator role involves dissemination of best-practice knowledge (BPKD), and the 6 strategies include knowing the market, engaging the nursing staff, modifying the message, building a relationship, using influential nursing staff, and involving nurse leaders. The findings provide preliminary support for using Rogers’ theory as a framework for nursing professionals engaged in BPKD. Further research is needed to illuminate the connection and distinction between BPKD and facilitation of BPKU.

“…Nurse and physician questionnaires included a demographics section and two major tools. The Perceived Stage of Adoption Instrument measures nurses' and physicians' adoption of practices that have a research base (Brett 1987; Rodgers 1994; Rutledge et al 1996; Shively et al 1997). Each specific practice is six questions and is scored on a 0 (low adoption) to 4 (implementation) scale.…”

“…Each specific practice is six questions and is scored on a 0 (low adoption) to 4 (implementation) scale. Internal consistency is .95–.75, with test–retest reliability of r =.83 (Brett 1987; Rodgers 1994; Rutledge et al 1996; Shively et al 1997). For this study, the questionnaire included four sections focusing on the practices of Pain Assessment in the Elderly, Pain Assessment in the Confused Elderly, Prescription/Administration of Analgesics Around‐the‐Clock, and Avoiding Prescription/Administration of Demerol in Pain Treatment of Elders.…”
