[INSERT HEADER HERE ALL CAPS]
SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
(Insert Title Here)
Note there is no heading that says Introduction. The paragraph or two following the title on the first page of your text is assumed to be your introduction. Your introduction follows the title of your paper (note it is not bolded). You should start your introduction with a powerful statement or two to stimulate interest. You should identify the purpose of your paper and provide a preview of what the paper will include. Remember formal papers are in third person so no I, me, we, etc.
Refer to yourself as the MSN scholar or the MSN student. The Introduction must be 1-2 paragraphs.
Problem Statement
Your introduction section should smoothly transition into your problem statement. It should flow logically from the information you provided. This section of the paper will provide information about the clinical problem using the Johns Hopkins Question Development Tool (Appendix B) as the guide. The clinical problem should address a nursing sensitive issue and discuss why the issue/problem is important to nursing and to healthcare. There should also be a synopsis of what current practice is related to the practice concern. Explain your approach to the problem and how your intervention will address it.
Problem Background
The background of the problem is a review of information on why the problem is a pressing concern and summarizes for the reader what is known about the problem being investigated. This is accomplished with a general review of foundational research literature and data from credible sources that report findings related to the topic of interest.
Stakeholders
What persons/groups or individuals might be impacted by your project? Ensure you think “outside the box” and consider both internal and external persons/groups, as well as entities.
PICOT Question
A well-developed clinical question using the PICO(T) components will then be developed. The PICO should be concise, relate to nursing practice and be a nursing sensitive issue. It should be written so the terms used in the PICO help guide the search strategies. The Question Development tool will also be used to identify the proposed search terms, the databases to be searched and any specific search strategies used. Search strategies can include applying limiters such as language, years to search, peer reviewed, articles limited to certain countries, etc. Search strategies can also include using Boolean search terms AND, OR and NOT to help refine the search. In this section the student will also address how the clinical question was or was not revised to reflect the current evidence. The last part of the question development tool is to identify the outcome measurement plan with very specific information and metrics related to who, what, where, how often type questions.
SECTION 2: LITERATURE SUPPORT
Review of Literature
The next area of the paper will address the literature review and provide a discussion of the evidence-supported interventions. A summary of the literature search parameters and identification of research and non-research sources of evidence will be provided with a synthesis and summary of the evidence to support the chosen intervention. The literature support must directly relate to the intervention stated in the PICO. Once the research articles have been identified a summary of the information from the studies should be provided using the Johns Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Tool (Appendix G) as a guide. The EBP questions that will be identified in the literature review summary table will include the complete article information, author, date, name, type of evidence, sample size and setting of the study, a summary of the findings that help support the clinical question, what outcome measurements were used and any limitations of the study. Synthesize at least 8-10 (no more than 5 years old) primary research studies and/or systematic reviews; do not include summary articles. This section is all about the scientific evidence rather than someone else’s opinion of the evidence. Do not use secondary sources; you need to get the article, read it, and make your own decision about quality and applicability to your question even if you did find out about the study in a review of the literature. The studies you cite in this section must relate directly to your PICOT question. This is a synthesis where you address the similarities, differences, and controversies in the body of evidence.
SECTION III: INTERVENTION DESCRIPTION
Proposed Intervention
Restate the proposed intervention from the PICO in this section of the paper. A discussion of why this intervention is an important solution to the clinical problem should be addressed.
Setting
Identify the setting where the project will be implemented including information as to the organizational culture related to supporting evidence practice change, along with readiness to change.
Barriers
In your proposal you will address potential barriers to the project and strategies for overcoming these barriers. In the final project you will describe what barriers were encountered during the practicum project. Along with the barriers provide information as to how the barriers were overcome and what solutions were provided to ensure project success.
Outcomes
Address the benefits of the change in this section as well as the
expected outcomes along with the detailed steps of how these outcomes will be measured.
Action Plan
The action plan should include a synopsis of all of the critical milestones and related tasks. Include the completed John Hopkins Action Planning tool (Appendix I), as well as, the financial table completed in Module 6 of NR529 as an Appendix to the Manuscript.
References
Remember this is a reference list rather than a bibliography. If there is not a citation for a reference, it should not be here. PLEASE make sure your references and your citations throughout the paper are in APA format. You can go from an A paper to a B paper on APA errors alone. Take the time to make sure they are correct.
