Title: Evidence-Based Practice Proposal -
Section B: Problem Description
Write a paper of
500-750 words (not including the title page and reference page) on your
proposed
problem description for your EBP project. The paper should
address the following:
- Describe
the background of the problem. Tell the story of the issue and why it
deserves attention.
- Identify
the stakeholders/change agents. Who, or what organizations, are concerned,
may benefit from, or are affected by this proposal. List the interested
parties, patients, students, agencies, Joint Commission, etc.
- Use
the feedback from the Topic 2 main forum post and refine your PICOT
question. Make sure that the question fits with your graduate degree specialization.
- State
the purpose and project objectives in specific, realistic, and measurable
terms. The objective should address what is to be gained. This is a
restatement of the question, providing focus. Measurements need to be
taken before and after the evidence-based practice is introduced to
identify the expected changes.
- 5)
Provide supportive rationale that the problem or issue is an important one
for nursing to resolve using relevant professional literature sources.
- Develop
an initial reference list to assure that there is adequate literature to
support your evidence-based practice project. Follow the "Steps to an
Efficient Search to Answer a Clinical Question" box in chapter 3 of
the textbook. Use "NUR-699 Search Method Example" to assist you.
- 7)
The majority of references should be research articles. However, national
sources such as Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National
Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Department of Health and Human
Resources (HHS), or the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)
and others may be used when you are gathering statistics to provide the
rationale for the problem.
- Once
you get into the literature, you may find there is very little research to
support your topic and you will have to start all over again. Remember, in
order for this to be an evidence-based project, you must have enough evidence to
introduce this as a practice change. If you find that you do not have
enough supporting evidence to change a practice, then further research
would need to be conducted.
