1) Introduction. In this section you will identify an area of nursing practice in which you would like to make a change. Start with an introduction to the problem and define the problem you have identified, describe the prevalence of the problem, describe the significance of the problem to patients and to nurses and include the PICOT question. Below is my PICOT
question:
In infants that are at risk for HIE at birth, what
is the efficacy of initiating therapeutic
hypothermia, in comparison to delaying
initiation of therapeutic hypothermia, on
preventing HIE, within the first 6 hours of life?
2) Literature review. Summarize the literature you found (the three articles you have identified previously) in a literature review section. (I have provided 1 of the research article, please identify 2 other research articles) the guidelines for these articles are:
Be current, published within the last 5 – 7 years (preferably 5 years)
Be complete reports of single, **’primary research studies
Published in peer-reviewed, scholarly journals
3) Practice recommendation. The purpose of looking at research is to review/analyze evidence obtained in a systematic way to support a change in practice. Therefore, practice recommendations in your paper need to be firmly grounded in the evidence that you have reviewed. Several EBP models (e.g., Iowa Model, ARCC Model, etc.) provide a method to implement the practice change. Select one EBP model. Based on the evidence you found, you should discuss how you plan to address the problem/make the practice change using the selected EBP model.
4) Conclusion. The final paragraph of the paper should be a closing statement(s) in which you draw a conclusion about what you have learned.
In order to support your argument, you need to use at least 5 current references (within the past 5 years) from the professional literature. ****Please attach all 5 references in PDF format and label them as the following: 3 research articles, an inter-professional reference, and a
systematic review and or meta-analysis. If you cannot locate a systematic review and/or meta-analysis, you must make note of this and replace it with another reference. (I have attached one of the research articles).
This paper must reflect the guidelines of the APA Publication Manual 7th edition and include a title page and a reference list. The maximum length of this paper is 3 pages (not including the title and reference pages).
