For qualitative research sampling can be complex with variety of sampling overlapping specially in theoretical and purposeful sampling (Coyne, 1997). In order to collect evidence-based data, sample from the full population are picked through random selection. In addition to find representation for the proportional subgroups such as age, regions, sexes, stratified random sampling procedure is used. Moreover, to provide an ethical sample, clinician should avoid selection bias and instead use a high compliance sample to avoid selection bias. Furthermore, clinician should randomize assign patients to treatment and control groups to ensure a balanced group and avoid biased results. Precision and applicability is achieved through validity and reliability. Hence, the more valid and reliable the sample is the more precise the study is and can be applied into clinical settings. We believe it is possible to create a sampling plan that is equitable for all patients. According to Coyne (1997), clinician can either acquire purposeful sampling based on the study they are researching; on the other hand, selective study is based on sampling of the desired study for nursing research. Trustworthiness can be useful in appraising the sampling plan of the research. These include the credibility, dependability, transferability, and conformability evaluative element the qualitative sampling plan. Transferability is demonstrated by sufficient information by the researcher to find out whether the findings are meaningful to other people in similar situation. Credibility is demonstrated by accuracy and validity that are assured through documentation or researcher action, opinions and biases. Dependability is showed on the process of research that carefully documented to provide evidence of how the conclusion were drawn and whether under similar conditions researcher
