The Focus papers in this issue on the theme of evidence-based nursing, and the Commentary from a member of the executive of the Council of Deans and Heads, aim to stimulate the debate which will develop at the Nursing Times
Research Symposium for Evidence-based Nursing to be held at the Manchester Conference Centre on October 22-23. NTResearch has published papers and scientific reviews in past issues on this important issue and abstracts from these papers are published below. They will, it is hoped, offer readers further ammunition for effecting change.
