Review the elements included in PICOT questions to guide evidence-based nursing practice.
Respond to the questions below using the PICOT Question Worksheet TemplateLinks to an external site. Download PICOT Question Worksheet Template.
Using a minimum of 3 scholarly nursing sources, current within 5 years.
I have attached the worksheet template to be filled out.
Please go based off of this PICOT question:
Amongst adults who suffered from chronic pain (P) and employed a non-pharmacologic intervention approach (I) rather than using opioid cures alone (C), which approach (O) was more effective in the management of the pain 12 months later of the research (T)?
And use this information to pick a specific intervention for the PICOT question:
Academic literature emphasizes the need to use evidence-based interventions as a basis for managing diseases. According to Skelly et al. (2020), there are evidence-based, non-pharmacological approaches to managing chronic pain. They are “mind-body practices, psychological therapies, multidisciplinary rehabilitation, mindfulness practices, manual therapies, physical modalities, and acupuncture” (p. 56). Researchers conducted randomized control trials to assess the effectiveness of the above non-pharmacological approaches on patients with chronic pain. Each of the interventions significantly enhanced patient mobility and relieved pain. It is worth noting that the benefits of the approaches to the patients were durable (Skelly et al., 2020). Therefore, one can state that a combination of those non-pharmacological approaches to managing pain can be used as an intervention (I) to compare its effectiveness with using opioid cures alone (C).
Please let me know if there are any questions.
Thank you.
