DQ2 Developing a PICOT Question

According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, the Masters prepared nurse “recognizes that the master’s-prepared nurse applies research outcomes within the practice setting, resolves practice problems, works as a change agent, and disseminates results.” Many research ideas emerge from practice and/or the educational environment. Formulating a well-built research question is challenging. Asking the right question facilitates the search process when conducting a review of the literature.

Read the article “Asking the clinical question: A key step in evidence-based practice (Links to an external site.).”

After reading the article, create your own PICOT question around the topic you selected that will be used for your Unit 2 Introduction to an Evidence-Based Practice Problem. In your discussion post, complete the following:

Describe your selected topic and its significance

Share and discuss your created PICOT question.

Unit 4 DQ1 Literature Reviews

The literature review is key to any research study or article development. It is important to review the literature within your own discipline, but also other disciplines which may confront similar issues or have related concerns. For example, practice issues in other health related fields often correspond to those confronted in nursing. Nursing education concerns may also be found in academic research within other disciplines outside of the health care field.

What is the purpose of conducting an organized literature review?

How will you approach this aspect of your research?

What literature other than nursing literature do you feel may offer useful information?

How might you incorporate these ideas into your proposal?

Provide an example of a piece of literature that supports your topic and provide a brief summary of the article.
