How might you respond to a peer or manager who asks you to help develop a new tool to collect patient data on anxiety prior to cardiac catheterization?

There is a tendency for novice researchers to develop their own instrument if they cannot readily find one. How might you respond to a peer or manager who asks you to help develop a new tool to collect patient data on anxiety prior to cardiac catheterization?

What is the evidence (research) that supports your proposed changes? (Note: use research articles for this section)

Select a problem in nursing practice that you believe needs to be addressed and write a 6 page paper. Gather evidence on practices that will address the problem. Use the following outline to prepare for submission of the project in Week 5:

  • Identification of the problem. Why is it important? Why should there be a change?
  • Changes in practice that you are suggesting.
  • What is the evidence (research) that supports your proposed changes? (Note: use research articles for this section)
  • How do “individual patient or family needs and preferences” impact the implementation of the change?
  • How would you evaluate the change?

Describes your strategy for evaluating the anticipated change in practice

As discussed throughout this week, dissemination of research findings is necessary to continue to grow the knowledge base and support nurses learning from each other. With these thoughts in mind, you will create a PowerPoint presentation (5 or 6 slides) that does the following:

TOPIC- FALL PREVENTION

Provides a brief description of your project for others in the class
Describes your strategy for evaluating the anticipated change in practice
Reflects the role of the baccalaureate-prepared nurse in the collection of data to evaluate clinical practice changes
Describes how you would disseminate the results of this change in practice

Evaluate models of behavior using the basic model of health promotion and disease prevention, explain in your own words the systemic process that contributes to your client’s healthy or unhealthy habits. Evaluate the mind-body connection between your client and their health.

  1. Evaluate models of behavior using the basic model of health promotion and disease prevention, explain in your own words the systemic process that contributes to your client’s healthy or unhealthy habits. Evaluate the mind-body connection between your client and their health.
  2. Make a list of your client’s needs, prioritizing them, and evaluate a plan for meeting these needs.
  3. Create a treatment plan for your client. A treatment plan typically includes a diagnosis of the problem based on the client’s history, treatment goals, and steps the client will take in order to achieve the treatment goals. Make sure your plan is specific, measurable, and achievable and that it contains timeframes for the goals to be achieved. Your paper should be 6–8 pages, and you should use at least four resources, other than your text, to research the disorder you chose for your Assignment. You must have at least one Kaplan Library resource for your Final Project, from library databases such as Academic Search Premier or Lexis Nexis, along with online articles and books.
