Scholarly Paper, use only peer-review nursing articles from 2010-2015, APA format, include 5 references, double space. Need it in 12 hrs. Thanks.
This is my PICOT proposal: The PICOT format was used to frame the following question: In critically ill patients requiring mechanical ventilation (P), how does adding subglottic secretion drainage (SSD) to ventilator bundle (I), compare to the current standard of care (bundle without SSD) (C), in the prevention of VAP? Interventions in order to reduce VAP, accuracy of diagnosis, risk of disease (O), and estimated time for recovery, extubation, and decreasing length of stay (T).
Purpose
The purpose of the assignment is to identify a clinical practice based problem/topic amenable to interventions based upon evidence.
Objective(s):
1. Evaluate interdisciplinary evidence for translation into practice.
Directions and Assignment Elements: Construct a scholarly paper using the following as headings
1. Select a relevant clinical practice based problem/topic.
2. Describe the current clinical practice based problem/topic and population of interest. Include background information.
3. Search the literature for three (3) evidence-based interventions on the problem/topic of interest. The literature can be individual studies or systematic reviews. A systematic review counts as one (1) intervention. If using a systematic review, report on the review, not on the studies identified in the review. All of the studies
MUST be intervention studies. Review what constitutes an intervention study.
4. Identify the databases (e.g., CINAHL, Medline) and key terms that you used in initiating the collective search for all of the studies (not each study).
5. Report on the evidence found in the literature.
6. Write the PICOT question in sentence form using the following format
P = Population – who does this problem primarily effect (i.e. Nurses, patients, families, etc.)?
I = Intervention or issue interest – what is the proposed intervention identified in the literature as best practice?
C = Comparison intervention or comparison group – what is the current practice? Compare the best practice intervention identified in the literature with the current practice.
O = Outcome – how would you determine if the change/implementation has been effective?
T = Time – how long would the new change/intervention need to be in effect before you anticipate evaluating the outcome?
The question must reflect an issue or intervention within the discipline of nursing (not medicine). This means the question must be about something nurses have authority over, not something that is prescribed and/or carried out by physicians or another discipline. Interdisciplinary interventions are encouraged.
Example of a PICOT Question and PICOT template can be found on Appendix B p. 493 or the accompanying CD in the Melynk & Fineout-Overholt (2011) text. Page numbers may vary depending on the books edition you are using (i.e. 2nd edition or 3rd edition).
The assignment is due according to the date posted in the Activities and Assignments guide. Limit the paper to no more than two-three (2-3) pages, excluding title and reference pages. Follow APA 6th edition format. Assignments turned in late without previous approval or notification will receive a 10 point deduction for every day the assignment is late. See rubric for the assignment. Name the assignment as follows: NSG 5111_assign2_your last name, first initial
