Analyzing peer-reviewed research articles is crucial to determining the application of EBP practices in various clinics. In this case, the approach to the identification and analysis of peer-reviewed research entailed using key terms and phrases to generate different articles and using appropriate tools to improve the understanding of the literature. The approach also entailed refining the searches through the libraries (Baumgartner et al., 2019).
As a considerable number of the articles that I came across were outdated, I refined my search criteria to ensure that only the most recent ones were included – published either in the last year or within the previous five years.
To obtain peer-reviewed journal articles, I narrowed down my search to only include journals that are approved by peers and are from scholarly journals or databases. These two effective strategies helped me in finding recent and relevant articles related to the topic under study. (Kulczycki et al., 2019).
Peer-reviewed journal articles present work done by peers, thus offering high-quality evidence on the research subjects. Journals are also strictly scrutinized to ensure they present factual evidence on any topic of interest.
The database that will be my go-to resource for peer-reviewed research articles in the future is Walden University, or those controlled by credible authors and associations. Databases like CINAHL PuMed are critical for nurses and advanced practice as they provide EBP strategies that can be implemented in diverse healthcare settings (Simmons et al., 2020). Using online professional websites is also critical to protecting the local cultures and ensuring they propagate primary health interventions for diverse patient populations with different health issues.
Research analysis is a critical component of EBP, as practitioners can scrutinize it before it is deployed in clinical settings. The analyzed article demonstrates the importance of awareness of dementia among older individuals in Britain and also the aged. Consequently, older adults are at increased risk for dementia, and it is critical to provide awareness and reduce the impact of this condition on older adults and their families, who may require additional support to help such individuals.
