Conducting Research in the Practice Setting by Moira A. Stewart, Peter G. Norton, Earl V. Dunn

From the Publisher

In Conducting Research in the Practice Setting, a multidisciplinary team of contributors representing such fields as family medicine, nursing, social work, epidemiology, and anthropology identify the methods and elements necessary for conducting successful research in the primary care setting. The volume first concentrates on such general issues of primary care research as the ethics of conducting research with human subjects. Next, the contributors examine practical questions such as combining clinical care and research, recruiting patients, maximizing use of the office computer, and identifying the needs of the surrounding community. Collaborations - a topic of increasing importance - between nurse and physician, university and community, and industry and clinician are explored. Special settings relevant to primary care are also discussed. For example, such settings as rural native communities, the homeless, and long-term care are addressed in terms of the challenges they present. The appendix includes a checklist for conducting research in the practice setting.
