A national study to determine how obstetric/gynecologic nurse practitioners (OGNPs) make practice change was conducted. A random sample of 1000 currently certified OGNPs was surveyed. Results indicated that continuing education meetings were primary sources of practice change information. Other important sources included discussion with physicians and other NP colleagues, as well as nursing and medical journals. The survey results indicate that continuous learning for practice change is occurring and that a variety of sources are used to assist OGNPs in keeping their practice activities current.
