Facilitating research utilization: a model for nurse managers.

Nursing research utilization has been studied and models have been developed by many nursing groups. However, the important role of the nurse administrator or manager in promoting utilization of research has been neglected. This pilot study used a nursing diagnosis--alterations in comfort (pain)--to identify common and expected variables in selected studies. Findings from this research together with the literature on research utilization models provided the foundation for the development of a preliminary model for nurse managers. The authors discuss this process and make recommendations for implementation.
