There are three main levels of translation research namely T1, T2, andT3. T1 focuses on developing interventions and treatment for different conditions. T1 helps in understanding the general physiology of human and evaluating any potential for new interventions. T2 research involves testing the efficacy of the different interventions created from T1. On the other hand, T3 entails disseminating and implementing the research findings within the target population (Titler, 2018).
While both Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) and Translation research are crucial in healthcare, they are different. The two concepts are not interchangeable as they both influence nursing practice in varied ways. EBP emphasizes the application of evidence in one’s practice to achieve desirable outcomes (Dickinson & Shever, 2012). On the other hand, translation research mainly analyzes various implementation interventions, factors, and contextual variables that influence the uptake and use of knowledge in one’s practice as well as wi...
