Objective There is no single study that has examined nursing research priorities in Vietnam. This study aimed to gain consensus from experts on the nursing research priorities in Vietnam. Methods A three-round modified Delphi study was used in this study. A focus group discussion among experts was conducted in round I to identify the nursing research priorities (n=23). Data in round I were analyzed using content analysis. In round II, participants were invited to rate the importance of each nursing priority topic in a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire, which had a 74% (n=17) response rate. In round III, the questionnaire was returned to the experts (n=17) until consensus was reached. Data from round II and round III were analyzed to produce mean score and final rank. Results The top 12 research priority lists were identified, which included subthemes and areas of possible investigations. All priorities were classified into three groups in the rank order, namely: (i) nursing management and leadership, which included (1) nursing care quality, (2) management and leadership of nurse managers, (3) nursing image, (4) professional nurse competency, and (5) human resource management; (ii) nursing education, which included (1) knowledge-specific domain, (2) the linkage between education and practice, and (3) nurse teacher workforce; and (iii) nursing service, which included (1) adult nursing concern, (2) patient safety, (3) public health nursing concern, and (4) quality of life of patients and nurses. Conclusions Consensus among experts was achiever, and the findings are considered as the basis of resources to the most essential research needs in Vietnam.

Background?After spinal cord injury (SCI), victims may become partially or fully dependent on the caregivers. After getting discharge from the hospital, they are cared by their caregivers. Often patients return to hospital with serious complications owing to inadequate knowledge of the caregivers. So, it is essential to meet the informational needs of the caregiver regarding home care. Objective?The aim of this study is to develop home care guidelines for the caregivers of the patients being discharged with SCI. Method?The study was conducted in five phases. The blueprint of the home care guidelines was prepared. Face and content validity of the home care guidelines were done using the Delphi technique. An observational checklist was prepared from the final draft of the guidelines. The guidelines were found feasible after conducting a pilot study on five caregivers. To calculate the reliability of the guidelines, 30 caregivers were taught as per developed guidelines and were observed while caring for their patients by checklist. Reliability was calculated using Cronbach ? coefficient. Results?The checklist showed Cronbach ? of 0.91. Guidelines were found to be feasible and reliable. Guidelines were developed in two languages: English and Hindi. Conclusion?The home care guidelines are valid and reliable. Guidelines enable caregivers to provide the best possible care to their patient at home to prevent development of complications.

“…The Delphi method is widely used and accepted for consensus building on a specific topic (Hsu & Sandford, ). Nurses have used the Delphi method to ascertain priorities or determine developments for research, education, and clinical practice (Kirkwood, Wales, & Wilson, ). The Delphi method was selected for this study because it maintains subject anonymity and minimizes bias or coercion due to influence of individual members in group discussion (Hsu & Sandford, ).…”

The EPQA guidelines can be used to guide and evaluate the methodological quality of EBP projects. They can be used in practice settings to critically appraise an EBP project prior to translating recommendations into practice. Educators can use the EPQA guidelines as a rubric to evaluate student EBP projects. EPQA guidelines can be utilized in research to assess interventions and to build or improve EBP capacity.
