Implementing a Standardized Bundle to Prevent Nonventilator Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia in Adults
The emerging field of implementation science (IS) facilitates the sustainment of evidence-based practice in clinical care. This article, the fifth in a series on applying IS, describes how a nurse-led team at a multisite health system used IS concepts, methods, and tools to implement a standardized nursing bundle on three adult inpatient units that aimed to reduce the incidence of nonventilator hospital-acquired pneumonia.
