Ebn Podcast

Welcome to the first EBNJC podcast, this month’s topic is Adult Nursing. Dr Helen Noble, Associate Editor, Evidence Based Nursing, will be exploring a commentary from the journal written by invited guest Dr Stephanie Thompson, from the Department of Medicine at the University of Alberta, Canada. The podcast discussions are intended to help you think about matters raised in the commentary, as well as the clinical applicability of the original research paper. Dr Thompson will discuss her commentary which critiqued a cross-sectional observational study aimed at examining sleep quality in chronic haemodialyzed patients in relation to morning-shift dialysis. She stresses that assessment of sleep quality, with attention to disease and treatment-related factors should be incorporated into the routine care of haemodialysis patients. Importantly Dr Thompson draws on her own experiences and reflects on the relevance of the study to practice and policy. Read the full commentary: ebnurs-2013-101673 - People receivin
