Evidenced- based research project - identify and define a problem

Evidenced- based research project

In the final project, you will be presenting a plan for an evidence-based research project. The final project information is only a plan for research. You will not be implementing or evaluating any part of your plan. To begin this process, you need to identify and define a problem at your organization or in your practice. The next step is to conduct a literature review to find out what information is available in the current body of knowledge and what gaps in knowledge still exist. You will find, through your literature review, that the problem you have identified is not just a phenomenon at your organization or in your practice but exists in many areas of nursing practice.

For this assignment, in 2-3 pages, identify and define a problem at your organization or in your practice. Provide a review of at least 5 current peer-reviewed research articles that discuss and address the problem. Discuss how the problem you identified is similar to and different than what is discussed in the current body of knowledge. Provide evidence regarding the significance of the problem, and how the problem has and can impact nursing practice, patient and/or student outcomes, and global healthcare or educational environments. Discuss at least three of the potential solutions and/or evidence-based guidelines that were used in the literature to address the problem. Remember you are gathering the literature that will support an evidence-based research project.
