Implementing clinical research: perils, pitfalls, and planning.
Performing clinical nursing research is critical to enhancing patient care. Even the most carefully planned study, however, is subject to the "real world" of clinical practice and unforeseen obstacles. Attention to detail throughout all phases of the study, flexibility, and problem-solving are key to successful completion of your study. And most important--keep your sense of humor and learn from the experience!
