DISCUSSION: TRANSLATION MODELS AND FRAMEWORKS
Collaboration offers the advantage of other experiences and viewpoints to confirm or challenge your own. Discussions can do the same and for some topics, getting early feedback is especially valuable. This Discussion is one such example. As you dig into the science of translation and select a framework or model for your proposed EBP QI project, you can look to your class colleagues for a check on your choice and your reasoning.

TO PREPARE:
- Review the Week 5 Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the featured frameworks/models, below, in the White, Dudley-Brown, and Terhaar text.
- Identify the translation science framework or model that is most relevant to your practice problem from among the following three models and consider your reasoning:
- Roger’s Diffusion of Innovations (pp. 36–39);
- Knowledge-to-Action (pp. 42–45);
- Theory of Reasoned Action (pp. 66–67).
- Assess your understanding of “translation science” and how you would explain it in the context of evidence-based practice and quality improvement.
With these thoughts in mind …
BY DAY 3 OF WEEK 5
Post an explanation of the translation science framework or model that you selected and explain why it is most relevant to your practice problem. Be specific and provide examples.
Read a selection of your colleagues’ posts.
NURS 8114 WEEK 5 DISCUSSION POST Sample
The Knowledge to Action (KTA) framework is the selected translation science Framework. The KTA framework facilitates stakeholders’ use of research knowledge, including practitioners, policymakers, and the public. The framework outlines stages of the research-to-practice process, from discovering and generating research-based knowledge to implementing and applying research (White et al., 2019). The KTA framework has two components: Knowledge Creation and Action. Knowledge Creation comprises inquiry, synthesis, and tools or products. Knowledge becomes more advanced as it moves through the three steps.
Knowledge inquiry is the first generation knowledge. It refers to primary studies and represents the majority of the research. Knowledge synthesis is the second generation knowledge. It entails synthesizing results from individual studies and interpreting them within the context of global evidence (White et al., 2020). Knowledge tools and products is the third generation knowledge. They include decision aids, clinical practice guidelines, and videos. Action entails identifying and appraising the problem and the known research, identifying barriers and successes, planning and executing, and lastly, monitoring, evaluating, and adjusting.
The KTA framework is relevant to my practice problem on hypertension since it can guide the translation of evidence-based knowledge in managing patients with or at risk of hypertension. It will guide the translation of evidence-based knowledge and the application of the knowledge in preventing and managing hypertension in clinical settings. Furthermore, the KTA framework can provide a deliberate map for hypertension interventions and allow increased validity and rigor (Lee & Ho, 2019). It also facilitates the seamless integration of evidence-based literature into the growing body of implementation literature.
