Description
|
Designed to teach data management skills to DNP students, this book uses a progressive case study approach. |
|
Purpose
|
The authors state that the purpose "is to describe a process and a set of strategies to be used to promote consistent, quality evaluation of the impact of translation." |
|
Audience
|
The authors wrote the book for DNP students after they were unsuccessful in finding a suitable one on the subject. Both authors teach in a DNP program; one specializes in data management and the other is the director of a DNP program. |
|
Features
|
This is described as a step-by-step guide for DNP students to learn analysis and management of clinical data. It covers all areas of data management. Chapter 2, on "Basic Statistical Concepts and Power Analysis," is a good review of important statistical concepts that are relevant to clinical data analysis and management. |
|
Assessment
|
The authors state that they created this book to fill a specific need. DNP students may struggle with data management, since their projects are not research, but quality improvement, and this book covers the subject well. I recommend it for DNP students for use during their capstone projects. |
