Instructions: Match each step name with the description of step of the EBP process using Brown & Ecoff’s 8A’s model with the new intervention of hourly rounding and script of offering possessions, potty-ing, pain assessment, and positioning.  Background: Patient falls are serious events for patients, staff, and hospitals. The average cost for a fall with injury is $14,000 and increases the hospital stay an average of 6.3 days (Sentinel Event Alert, 2015). The simple act of hourly rounding has been suggested as a way to increase patient satisfaction, decrease call light usage, and decrease patient falls. This is a significant problem affecting the patient, nurse, and organization. Patient safety is a top priority for all hospitals and the cost of a patient injury resulting from a fall can be tremendous. Meade et al. (2006) found that hourly rounding can increase patient satisfaction and decrease call light use as well as patient falls. The best practice for hospitalized patients would be to implement hourly rounding. What is the process in finding the best practice to decrease patient falls through hourly rounding during hospitalization? Recall your own EBP clinical proposal project and the steps necessary to complete your EBP change project proposal assignment.

A drug company is considering marketing a new local anesthetic.  The effective time of the anesthetic the drug company is currently production has a normal distribution with a mean of 7.4 minutes with a standard deviation fo 1.2 minutes.  The chemistry of the new anesthetic is such that the effective time should be normally distributed with the same standard deviation, but the effective time may be lower.  If it is the drug company will market the new anesthetic; otherwise they will continue to produce the older one.  A sample of size 36 results in a sample mean of 7.1.  A hypothesis test will be done to make the decision.  What is the p-value of the test results (answer to three decimal places eg 0.012)
