You are not required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite.

PICOT Question and Literature Search

The first step of the evidence-based practice process is to evaluate a nursing practice environment to identify a nursing problem in the clinical area. When a nursing problem is discovered, the nurse researcher develops a clinical guiding question to address that nursing practice problem.

For this assignment, you will create a clinical guiding question know as a PICOT question. The PICOT question must be relevant to a nursing practice problem. To support your PICOT question, identify six supporting peer-revised research articles, as indicated below. The PICOT question and six peer-reviewed research articles you choose will be utilized for subsequent assignments.

Use the “Literature Evaluation Table” to complete this assignment.

  1. Select a nursing practice problem of interest to use as the focus of your research. Start with the patient population and identify a clinical problem or issue that arises from the patient population. In 200–250 words, provide a summary of the clinical issue.
  2. Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT question in your selected nursing practice problem area of interest. The PICOT question should be applicable to your proposed capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).
  3. The PICOT question will provide a framework for your capstone project. 
  4. Conduct a literature search to locate six research articles focused on your selected nursing practice problem of interest. This literature search should include three quantitative and three qualitative peer-reviewed research articles to support your nursing practice problem.

Note: To assist in your search, remove the words qualitative and quantitative and include words that narrow or broaden your main topic. For example: Search for diabetes and pediatric and dialysis. To determine what research design was used in the articles the search produced, review the abstract and the methods section of the article. The author will provide a description of data collection using qualitative or quantitative methods. Systematic Reviews, Literature Reviews, and Metanalysis articles are good resources and provide a strong level of evidence but are not considered primary research articles.  Therefore, they should not be included in this assignment.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. 

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Learning Resources

Where can you find evidence to inform your thoughts and scholarly writing? Throughout your degree program, you will use research literature to explore ideas, guide your thinking, and gain new insights. As you search the research literature, it is important to use resources that are peer-reviewed and from scholarly journals. You may already have some favorite online resources and databases that you use or have found useful in the past. For this Discussion, you explore databases available through the Walden Library.

To Prepare:

· Review the information presented in the Learning Resources for using the Walden Library, searching the databases, and evaluating online resources.

· Begin searching for a peer-reviewed article that pertains to your practice area and interests you.

Post the following:

Using proper APA formatting, cite the peer-reviewed article you selected that pertains to your practice area and is of particular interest to you and identify the database that you used to search for the article. Explain any difficulties you experienced while searching for this article. Would this database be useful to your colleagues? Explain why or why not. Would you recommend this database? Explain why or why not.

Week 3 Discussion NSG4074

 

Topic 1: Child and Adolescent Health Risks

As you discovered in this week’s lectures and readings, several populations face multiple health risks across their lifespan. Children and adolescents are a population that is at a higher health risk for obesity. A national movement is underway to reduce risk factors for developing obesity in children. Part of this movement is the “Let’s Move!” campaign, which is a comprehensive and coordinated initiative to prevent childhood obesity. The initiative emphasizes four primary components: healthy schools, access to affordable and healthy food, raising children’s physical activity levels, and empowering families to make healthy choices. Review Healthy People 2020:

  • Identify risk factors for childhood obesity.
  • Do the risk factors differ and how do they differ between children and adolescents? 
  • Identify objectives that will combat childhood and adolescent obesity.
  • Provide suggestions on how community health nurses can contribute to these national health objectives and accomplish the goal of decreasing obesity among this population.

Some debate in the literature exists specific to whether or not bipolar disorder can be diagnosed in childhood. While some have anecdotally argued that it is not possible for children to develop bipolar disorder (as normal features of childhood confound the diagnosis), other sources argue that pediatric bipolar disorder is a fact.

In this Discussion, you engage in a debate as to whether pediatric bipolar disorder is possible to diagnose.

Learning Objectives

Students will:
  • Evaluate diagnosis of pediatric bipolar depression disorder
  • Analyze consequences to diagnosing/failing to diagnose pediatric bipolar depression disorder

To Prepare for the Discussion:

  • The instructor will assign you a position for or against the issue of diagnosing pediatric bipolar depression disorder.
  • Review the Learning Resources concerning the controversy over the diagnosis of pediatric bipolar depression disorder.

 

Post:

  • Write “for” in the subject line of your Discussion post.

  • Based on the position you were assigned (FOR), justify whether or not pediatric bipolar depression disorder should be diagnosed.

Support your position with evidence and examples.

Note: In APA Format and proper citation, Support your rationale with a minimum of three academic resources/references no more than five years old. Include introduction and conclusion. 

 

Based on the requested outline, you should first ALWAYS provide some type of introduction based on the presenting issue using research.  Ex: According to the American Psychiatric Association (2015), depression has increased by……

Introduction….tell briefly about depression

History of Present Illness/Clinical Impression…..you should always have a mental status exam of the client you are seeing…..at every visit!!!!!!

Psychopharmacologic treatment….What does the research say about treating a client with depression.  Ex:  Harris 2018, stated the Serotonin Intake inhibitors are the first line treatment for depression due to the targeted neurotransmitters.   Although SSRI’s are considered first line treatment for depression, Mr. J was started on Wellbutrin 150mg instead because the preceptor felt that the Wellbutrin would assist Mr J with smoking cessation as well. Harris (2015) stated that Wellbutrin helps to decrease smoking by 50% due to….

Psychotherapy….Research states that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the best therapeutic approach with treating patients with Major Depression (Smith, 2019).  Cognitive Behav Therapy was discussed with Mr. j and the client is willing to participate in this therapy.

Medical Management…Mr J does not have any medical needs that need to be addressed at this time.  However, it is recommended that the client get baseline labs to ensure that there are no medical needs that may be the cause of the depression (Harris, 2016)

Students you should BOLD the headings!!!! The instructor should be able to immediately identify the pertinent information.

Now the RUBRIC…the guide to for a grade!!!  The rubric is graded as EXCELLENT, GOOD, FAIR, AND POOR.  You choose where you want to be

  1.  Analytical thinking…..comes from research,  This should be covered with the introduction
  2. Purpose Statement….The purpose of this assignment is to discuss a client with depression, treatment options, and appropriate interventions to properly care for Mr. J (This is simple) Can be included at the end of the introduction.
  3. Key concepts….did you address what the assignment ask you to do
  4. Are you using the required resources to back up the data
  5. Is the paper flowing
  6. Grammar…..GRADUATE STUDENTS…ESPECIALLY THOSE OF YOU WANTING TO OBTAIN A DOCTORATE try to avoid USING HE, SHE, THEY, US, I.  You can use the client, the daughter of the patient stated, the team, as a provider; etc.  The pronouns take away from the professional/scholarly writing within the paper….In my opinion.  See the examples above. However, it’s not against APA standards at this time…it’s now a preference for the avoidance of the pronoun use. 

Falls in Long term care and does rounding decrease falls

Submit a 10 page paper identifying the problem as a nursing leadership issue. Is it a local, regional, or national issue. What has the literature told you. State the purpose of your paper.
