Written Assignment: Develop a PICOT  In a document of between 700 and 1100 words (3 to 4 pages),  identify an evidence-based problem from a clinical setting (such as  long-term care, home care, or community agency). Develop a well-written clinical question using the PICOT, PICO, or PIO method (P =  Population, I = Implementation, C= Comparison, O = Outcome, T =  Time).  

 

In your assignment, be sure to include the following:  

• An introduction to the problem, including your personal  connection to this problem and a brief summary of  relevant background information  

• Information about the population who will be affected  by the resulting project  

• A well-written PICOT/PICO/PIO question, including  your rationale for why this is an EBP or QI question and  not a research question  

• An assessment of the feasibility of, and potential  barriers to, the change you’re proposing  

• Identification of the stakeholders involved in the  practice change or quality improvement (for example,  the agency from whom you would need permission to  complete the project)

 

A note about the question: Learners sometimes have problems  writing an EBP/QI question but write a research question instead. An  EBP/QI question should never use the words how or why. Those  terms belong in a research question. Your question should  acknowledge that evidence already exists. Below are some examples.  

Instead of asking:  

• How does the use of kangaroo care help increase infant  weight gain? (a research question)    

You will ask:  

• Will nurses (P) who attend a class on the practice  change of using kangaroo care (I) score higher on a  post-class test than on a pretest given before the class  (O)?

Instead of asking:

What is the effectiveness of a pressure injury prevention  bundle for adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients? (a  research question)    

You will ask:  

• In adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients (P), will the  implementation of a pressure injury prevention bundle  (I) compared to receiving standard pressure injury  prevention (C) reduce the incidence of pressure injuries  (O) after two months (T)?    

Instead of asking:  

• What is the relationship between self-reported job  satisfaction among nurses and turnover intentions? (a  research question)    

You will ask:  

Among nursing staff in a large urban hospital (P), will a decrease in  the patient-to-nurse ratio (I) reduce RN turnover (O) after eight  months (T)?  

Be sure to proofread your assignment before submission for overall  organization, clarity, and proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation  according to APA Style guidelines. Due in Week 7.
