This document discusses several evidence-based practice models, including the ACE STAR model, ARCC model, Iowa model, Johns Hopkins nursing model, and Stetler model. The ACE STAR model depicts knowledge transformation through five sequential points. The ARCC model was developed to advance and sustain EBP using control theory and cognitive behavioral theories. The Iowa model promotes quality care through research utilization with a starting point, decision points, and feedback loops. The Johns Hopkins model is a problem-solving approach that combines nursing process, standards of practice, and critical thinking to accelerate research into practice. The Stetler model was originally implemented in the 1970s as a quality improvement effort and is similar to the nursing process.

PRACTICE
• For some EBP Models, the goal is to create or establish
EBP protocols, procedures, or guidelines.
• Some EBP models focus on implementation of EBP in the
setting or institution.

• Most commonly used models are:
Academic center for Evidence-Based Practice Star model.
Advancing Research and clinical practice through close
collaboration (ARCC MODEL).
Iowa model.
Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based practice model.
Stetler model of Evidence-Based practice.
Ross worm and Larrabee model.
D.Censo model.

• ACE STAR MODEL:
 Developed by faculty at university of Texas Health
science center at San Antonio.
 Depicted by five points of sequential knowledge
transformation.

• ARCC MODEL:
 The advancing research and clinical practice through
close collaboration model was developed to advance and
sustain EBP.
 Basis in control theory and cognitive behavioral theories.
 Appropriate in clinical pracitice-particularly acute care.

• IOWA MODEL:
 The Iowa model of EBP was developed in 1990.
 Intent to promote quality care through research
utilization.
 The rational of IOWA model is to provide quality nursing
care through incorporation of research into practice.
 Organized into

JOHNS HOPKINS MODEL:
 It is a problem solving approach to clinical decision
making.
 Developed to accelerate research into nursing practice
and promote nursing autonomy, leadership, and
engagement with colleagues.
 Combines the nursing process, the ANA standards of
practice, critical thinking, and research utilization.
 Three core elements.
practice question, evidence, and translation.

• STETLER MODEL:
 Originally implemented in the 1970s as a quality
improvement effort.
 Similar to the nursing process thus easily implemented.
