I'm looking for a few good examples of studies that use single-case (preferably multiple baseline) designs in peer reviewed publications that have enhanced nursing practice in some way. Either treatment or educational interventions would be helpful.
Hello Glen
I don't know if any of these are what you are looking for. The initial one is a meta-analysis of papers, some of which might be applicable:
Wang, S. Y., Cui, Y., & Parrila, R. (2011). Examining the effectiveness of peer-mediated and video-modeling social skills interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders: A meta-analysis in single-case research using HLM. Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 5(1), 562-569.
And these are two more suggestions:
Keays, K. S., Harris, S. R., Lucyshyn, J. M., & MacIntyre, D. L. (2008). Effects of Pilates exercises on shoulder range of motion, pain, mood, and upper-extremity function in women living with breast cancer: a pilot study. Physical Therapy, 88(4), 494-510.

Boersma, K., Linton, S., Overmeer, T., Jansson, M., Vlaeyen, J., & de Jong, J. (2004). Lowering fear-avoidance and enhancing function through exposure in vivo: a multiple baseline study across six patients with back pain. Pain, 108(1), 8-16.

Thanks for your suggestions and quick response, Mary. I'll take a look at these articles. I'd also be interested in knowing of peer-reviewed nursing journals that frequently publish/feature single-case research designs. Thanks.

Dear Palmer
I wish if this can help.

Warm regards,

Is it possible to use oneself as the basis of a case study? I am a nurse and would like to use work developed by a psychotherapist.
Palmer: Le sugiero utilizar la Historia de vida como caso único que podría explicar un fenómeno en un contexto particular,Utilizando el teórico Ferrarotti.A través de una historia de un caso, es posible leer un fenómeno en una sociedad X.
