Martha L. Sylvia, Mary F. Terhaar · 3rd Edition · Springer Publishing

Complete chapter-by-chapter study guide aligned with Clinical Analytics and Data Management for the DNP (3rd Edition). Includes summaries, learning objectives, and NCLEX-style practice questions for all 29 chapters.

Overview

Clinical Analytics and Data Management for the DNP (3rd Edition) by Sylvia and Terhaar is a specialized graduate text used in DNP project, data, and analytics courses, written to walk doctoral nursing students through the data work behind an evidence-based DNP project. This study guide is built to follow it chapter by chapter so you review in the same order your faculty teach, focusing on the high-yield methods and analytics concepts the course tests. You get an introduction to clinical data management and analytics in EBP; data planning and preparation, including supporting the problem statement, primary and secondary data collection, and using EHR data; preparing for implementation with project measures, statistical planning, workflow mapping, the analysis plan, and IRB submission; and implementing and evaluating results through the analysis data set, and predictive modeling. It is an independent, aligned study guide, not the textbook or a copy of it. Use it to consolidate the analytics workflow that DNP courses and project defenses reward.

Aligned with DNP-level clinical analytics, data management, and project-planning courses; the review reinforces the data methods, statistical planning, and analytics concepts tested on course assignments and project defenses.
