Introduction: Evidence-based clinical guidelines are important tools in increasing the quality of nurses' clinical practice. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the quality of evidence-based clinical guidelines from the nurses’ view. Methods: In this descriptive cross sectional study, 116 nurses were collected through census method from the intensive care units of one of the selected hospitals in Tehran in 2010. For data collection, a researcher-made questionnaire was applied. Face validity was examined by nurses and content validity by faculty members and the reliability of the test was confirmed by test retest as well as McNemar and Spearman tests (r=0.72). The data were analyzed by SPSS 17 statistical software using descriptive-analytical methods. Results: The only significant relationship was observed between marital status and the guideline quality score (p=0.04). % 53.4 of nurses expressed that the quality of guidelines was good % 39.7 moderate and %6.9 weak. Conclusion: Although guidelines quality was considered acceptable by almost half of the nurses, up-to-dating the existing guidelines and providing specific instructions is felt for guidelines implementation in each unit. |
