AB  - The Institute of Medicine has recommended doubling the number of nurses with 
      doctorates by 2020. The National Research Council has recommended a clearer 
      distinction between doctoral preparation for a practice profession and that for 
      the preparation of scientists. To support the central premise that both the 
      research-oriented doctorate (PhD) and the practice-oriented doctorate, the doctor 
      of nursing practice (DNP), are critical to achieve and expand doctoral education, 
      we present current information regarding the impact of DNP programs, including 
      enrollments, scholarly productivity of DNP graduates, and the employment setting 
      of DNP scholars. Scholarly productivity was estimated by searching publication 
      databases between 2005 and 2012 using three strategies to estimate the 
      publication record of nurses who had earned a DNP degree. The large numbers of 
      nurses receiving the DNP are helping to fulfill the Institute of Medicine's 
      recommendation and are increasingly contributing to the scholarly output in the 
      field, especially related to clinical practice.
