Research Facilitation Core

研究促进核心已经成功地利用了宾夕法尼亚大学广泛的跨学科研究资源，并开发了大量的方法工具库，以建立CNOR的护理成果研究计划。核心的教师和资源已被用来帮助成员建立多学科的研究伙伴关系，使用大型行政和二级数据集，并在他们的调查中应用先进的多元建模技术。这些协调一致的努力使研究成果的生产力大幅增长。核心将在这些成功的基础上，通过这种竞争性的延续申请，寻求更多的研究合作者和环境，为将CNOR在成果研究方面不断增长的科学基础转化为临床实践提供机会。为此，核心将追求以下目标：1）扩大利用CNOR的资源和合作伙伴关系，以促进成果研究的新举措; 2）为CNOR成员提供研究方法，分析和统计以及赠款和手稿准备方面的帮助; 3）发展CNOR的转化研究计划。核心将提供基础设施，以支持多学科研究的发展，这些研究将展示护理对实现IOM六项质量改进成果的贡献-确保公众获得的护理是安全的，有效的，高效的，及时的，公平的，以病人为中心的。一个全面的数据资源清单、经验工具和方法以及基础广泛的研究咨询将 为促进有希望转化为临床环境的成果研究计划的增长提供基础。

The Research Facilitation Core has successfully harnessed the University of Pennsylvania's extensive interdisciplinary research resources and has developed a substantial reservoir of methodological tools to build CNOR's program of nursing outcomes research. Faculty and resources in the Core have been employed to assist members in building multidisciplinary research partnerships, using large administrative iand secondary data sets, and applying advanced multivariate modeling techniques in their investigations. These coordinated efforts have yielded substantial growth in outcomes research productivity. The Core will build on these successes with this competing continuation application and seek additional research collaborators and settings that offer opportunities to translate CNOR growing science base in outcomes research into clinical practice. To that end the Core will pursue the following aims: 1) to expand the use of CNOR's resources and partnerships to promote new initiatives in outcomes research; 2) to provide CNOR members with assistance in research methods, analysis and statistics, and grant and manuscript preparation; and 3) to develop CNOR's program of translational research. The Core will provide the infrastructure to support the development of multidisciplinary studies that will demonstrate nursing's contributions to the achievement of the IOM's six quality improvement outcomes--ensuring that the care received by the public is safe, effective, efficient, timely, equitable, and patient-centered. A comprehensive inventory of data resources, empirical tools and methods, and broad-based research consultation will provide the foundation for fostering the growth of outcomes research initiatives that have promise for translation to the clinical setting.
