For this assignment, you will locate a minimum of 4 research articles related to the topic and PICOT questions that you developed in Week 2. The articles must be current (2002 to the present), and two articles must be quantitative, and two articles must be qualitative. These articles should be somewhat related to your PICOT questions.

These were the PICOT Questions that I used before..

 PICOT QUESTIONS 

1. By what percentage will diabetes cases reduce, within 12 months, among adults 20 years and above from the Hispanic community, if they get an education on diabetes, compared to when they receive no training on the same? 

2. What will be the effect on diabetes prevalence among children below 20 years, when adults above 20 years receive treatment for diabetes compared to when they do not receive treatment, for two years?

3. How will the use of bicycles as a means of transport as compared to using personal vehicles reduce obesity among the Hispanic community, in 1 year?

(do not use these two articles )

Articles used for one assignment can’t be used for the other assignments(students should find new research articles for each assignment).

• The selected articles should be original research articles. Review articles, meta-analysis, meta-synthesis, and systemic review should not be used.
• Mixed-methods studies should not be used.

There are two parts to this assignment.

Part 1: Complete a Rapid Critical Appraisal Checklist chart for each research article (4 total).Download the following files in the Worksheets, Forms, and Templates area at left:

• Rapid Critical Appraisal Checklist (pdf)
• Rapid Critical Appraisal Checklist (doc)

Part II: Write a summary (2–3 pages)

• Describe the similarities and differences among the four research articles.

You should:

• Use current APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources.
• Submit the 4 completed charts along with your summary.

For this assignment, you are given a real-world scenario as follows:

The Health Commissioner of the state health department wants to commemorate public health nurses at a press conference during Nurses’ Week in May. As one of the nurse consultants at the state office, you have been assigned to develop talking points for the State Health Commissioner’s presentation. The topic you have been assigned is on the history of the role of nursing in the development of public health. There will be other topics discussed and an award given for the public health nurse of the year. She has scheduled 15-20 minutes for this presentation on the history.

Create 5-10 talking points for the presentation but no more than 2 pages. Each talking point should be between 2-4 sentences. Please indicate each talking point with a bullet. Each talking point should include one succinct message. Statistics can be used but must be interesting and easy for a general audience to understand. Below is a sample.

• Up to 20% of pregnant women and new mothers experience moderate to severe symptoms of depression. That would mean that in Virginia in 2009, of the 104,979 live births an estimated 20,996 mothers struggled with moderate to severe perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. (VDH, Division of Health Statistics, 2009)

There should be at least 2 APA style cited references cited properly in the talking points and listed at the end noted as references.
