DISSEMINATION OF

RESEARCH FINDINGS.
• It is part of the research process,
nurses who finish research need
to plan their dissemination
strategy.
• May include a final written report
often wanted by the funding
organisation.
• Papers written for academic and
professional audiences which can
either be local, regional or
international.
• Can be presented at conferences
and research meetings.
• Can be presented verbally
through conference papers or
virtual hosting online.
• Final research report , academic
and professional journal papers
and short research reports are
other forms of disseminating
information.
• Consider the audience.
• Draft what is to included.
• Information dissemination assists
in making people know about
what has to be done.
• Also stimulate other researchers
to develop ideas and add to
research findings through their
own researches or consider
implications for change in clinical
practice.
• The accepted format for articles,
papers and reports follow a
sequence as as Introduction_
materials and methods- results-
discussion- conclusion- summary
and references.
Report
• Presents the research journey.
And is often required by the
funding body and may need to be
written to a specified brief.
• It includes detail of the research
process, outcomes and
recommendations for future
practice.
• Can be a peer reviewed journal
which is acceptable.

journal, electronic publication of
web pages or CD-ROM, a
podcast( verbal presentation that
