Background: Substantial discrepancies exist in how research, evidence-based practice (EBP), and quality improvement (QI) are taught to nursing students across academic levels. As nursing education programs adopt the new The Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education and move toward competency-based education, prelicensure and advanced nursing students will need to demonstrate research, EBP, and QI competencies; therefore, faculty must possess the knowledge and skills to teach these paradigms' differences and integration.
Method: An evidence-based approach that builds on the literature and our experience as nurses and educators was used to develop this educational innovation.
Results: An innovative representation in table and figure format of the differences and interdependence of research, EBP, and QI is presented herein.
Conclusion: These documents clarify the evolving differences, similarities, and synergies as a framework for faculty development. .

Due to the unique nature of neurosurgery, perioperative bleeding may have devastating consequences and cause major morbidity and mortality. The recommendation to discontinue aspirin prior to major neurosurgical procedures rests upon conventional practice, expert consensus with priority given to avoidance of any major bleed.
