an identification of the problem that you have selected, and an explanation of the significance of this problem for nursing practice
Part 1
Write a 3page paper that includes the following:
¥ A summary of your area of interest, an identification of the problem that you have selected, and an explanation of the significance of this problem for nursing practice
¥ The 5 questions you have generated and a description of how you analyzed them for feasibility
¥ Your preliminary PICOT question and a description of each PICOT variable relevant to your question. Note: Not all of these variables may be appropriate to every question. Be sure to analyze which are and are not relevant to your specific question.
At least 10 possible keywords that could be used when conducting a literature search for your PICOT question and a rationale for your selections.
¥ Reminder: submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references. Integrates 2 or more credible outside sources, in addition to 3-4 course resources to support point of view.
Part 2
Write a 3 page literature review that includes the following:
¥ A synthesis of what the studies reveal about the current state of knowledge on the question (In hospitalized critically ill patients how does turning and repositioning every 2-4 hours compare to the use of pressure redistributing support surfaces in preventing the occurrence of pressure ulcers)?
? Point out inconsistencies and contradictions in the literature and offer possible explanations for inconsistencies.
¥ Preliminary conclusions on whether the evidence provides strong support for a change in practice or whether further research is needed to adequately address your inquiry
¥ Your literature reviews summary table with all (5) references formatted in correct APA style included in the body of your paper. Integrates 2 or more credible outside sources, in addition to 3-4 course resources to support point of view.
Note: Certain aspects of conducting a standard review of literature have not yet been covered in this course. Therefore, while you are invited to critically examine any aspect of the studies (e.g., a study’s design, appropriateness of the theoretic framework, data sampling methods), your conclusion should be considered preliminary. Bear in mind that five studies are typically not enough to reflect the full range of knowledge on a particular question and you are not expected to be familiar enough with research methodology to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects of the studies. Reminder: submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references.
Part 3
In a 4 page paper:
¥ Restate your PICOT question and its significance to nursing practice.
¥ Summarize the findings from the articles you selected for your literature review. Describe at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in the articles. Justify your response with specific references to at least 2 of the articles.
¥ Explain how the evidence-based practice that you identified contributes to better outcomes. In addition, identify potential negative outcomes that could result from failing to use the evidence-based practice.
Outline the strategy for disseminating the evidence-based practice that you identified throughout your practice setting. Explain how you would communicate the importance of the practice to your colleagues. Describe how you would move from disseminating the information to implementing the evidence-based practice within your organization. How would you address concerns and opposition to the change in practice?
¥ Reminder: submitted include a title page, introduction, summary, and references. Integrates 2 or more credible outside sources, in addition to 3-4 course resources to support point of view.
