Question

A nurse is searching for evidence concerning nurse-driven protocols (to evaluate the appropriateness of catheter removal or continuation) and catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) rates for pediatric clients in acute-care settings. Many of the resulting studies focus on outcomes in adult, hospitalized clients. What is the best mechanism for the nurse to limit the number of irrelevant studies?

Limit the database sources. Appraise recently published studies. Apply inclusion/exclusion criteria. Review each abstract.
