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.

 Describe one internal and one external method for the dissemination of your EBP project results.

I need someone who is proficient in graphs/ statistic nursing,here are the figures to use.I JUST NEED A LINE GRAPH THANKS.

The objective is to create a line graph for the following information:

Volumes projected in this area for the first year are 1275 patient days (or visits). With physician support and effective marketing, it is expected that the volume will increase 10% the second year, 14% the third year, and 20% the fourth year. The financial goal of this project is to break even by the end of the third year of operations.
For payroll, merit increases and overtime hours should be computed at 5% each. Use the salaries and benefit data from you’re your current knowledge of your local market or assume average hourly rate for the Registered Nurse is $28/hour and assistive personnel hourly rates at $9/hour. Benefit costs can be estimated at 25% of hourly rates.
Expected revenue is calculated at $4864 per case for the first year. The payer mix for this facility is: Medicare 37.9%; Medicaid 4.5%; Managed Care (HMO/PPO) 38.8%; Private Pay 6%; other insurance 10.6%; Worker’s Comp 2.2%.
