OMSB Exam OMSB_OEN Topic 7 Question 10 Discussion

Actual exam question for OMSB's OMSB_OEN exam

Question #: 10
Topic #: 7

A group of nurses conducting a systematic review to identify best practice evidence for hemodialysis in patient with anemia.

Which of the following should considered based on level of research evidence?

ACase-control studies

BNon-experimental studies

CQuasi-experimental studies

DRandomized control studies

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are considered the highest level of evidence in research because they reduce bias and provide the most reliable results. When conducting a systematic review to identify best practice evidence for hemodialysis in patients with anemia, RCTs should be prioritized. These studies provide strong evidence on the efficacy of interventions. Case-control studies, non-experimental studies, and quasi-experimental studies provide valuable information but are considered lower levels of evidence compared to RCTs.

I think we should focus on randomized control studies, as they offer the most reliable evidence for best practices.

Ah, the age-old question of research evidence. I say we skip the textbooks and just ask the anemia patients - they probably have the best answers!

Definitely D) Randomized control studies. Anything less would be like trying to perform open-heart surgery with a spork. Not happening!

I believe non-experimental studies should be considered too, as they can offer real-world perspectives on hemodialysis practices.
