NURS FPX 4030 Assessment 1 Locating Credible Databases and Research

The resource’s credibility is exemplified by its quality control and appropriate maintenance of resources, ensuring researchers receive adequate and accurate information (Ossom Williamson & Minter, 2019). The Journal of Renal Nutrition is recognized for information about nutrition and its connection with kidney health. It is well-known for its rigorous editing procedures and for publishing qualified studies. The sources of information advance researchers’ knowledge about nutrition’s role in managing kidney disease. Thus, the journal provides credible information. The leading peer-reviewed journal on kidney diseases, the American Journal of Kidney Diseases (AJKD), offers vast coverage of original articles, reviews, and clinical research.

This resource helps healthcare professionals look for insightful information on kidney disorders following strict editorial protocols. Therefore, all these resources are credible and relevant for novice nurses in our hospital to research chronic kidney disease and manage patients’ health conditions, improving patient care outcomes and quality of care.
