• Provide a brief description of the topic and background information.
• Explain the significance of the topic to nursing practice.
• Provide 3 clearly stated PICOT questions.

  the topics

The PICOT topics must be APPLICABLE TO NURSING, meaning that they involve a NURSING intervention. The prescription of medications is not a nursing intervention. PLEASE do not choose topics, such as medications, medical tests and procedures that nurses cannot influence. Keep it simple; it will make this assignment and the week 6 assignment so much easier. Here are some potential PICOT topics:Chlorhexidine for daily bathing of hospital patients (HAIs)Bedside shift report vs. nurse’s station shift report (Communication/Handoff Report/Reduction of Medical Errors)DVT prophylaxis – SCD’s vs. compression stockings (Joint Replacement)Heat/cold, guided imagery, music therapy, or pet therapy for pain management (Chronic Pain)Frequent mobility vs. bedrest for delirium management (Delirium)Hourly rounding and fall prevention (Falls in Hospitalized Patients)Early mobility and fall prevention or reduction in length of stay (Critical Care)Sleep breaks for night nurses and quality of care (Patient and Nurse Satisfaction)Wait times in the ER (Patient Satisfaction)Pressure Reducing/Specialty Mattress (Pressure Ulcer)Skin assessment tool (Pressure Ulcer risk reduction)Heparin vs saline protocol (IV patency)Rapid Response Teams (Cardiac Arrest prevention)Daily huddles (prioritizing safety issues)Debriefing after an emergency response to improve outcomes, team performance etcAddictionAdherenceAlarm SafetyComfortDeliriumDepression

Choosing a research topic is challenging. It is very helpful to choose a topic that is interesting to you as it will make the research process more fun and engaging for you. Also, the scope of your topic should be neither too broad nor too narrow. If your topic is too broad it may be hard to find information that is focused and relevant; if your topic is too narrow it may be hard to find any information at all. Background research will help you develop your topic and change it in more appropriate ways. Though this seems like extra work, it is actually a vital, time-saving step. Knowing more about your topic’s background can only help you develop a more effective topic, and therefore, research proposal.

The Literature search must be done before creating any research question. Once your preliminary question has been formulated, literature search should be done to find out what is known or unknown about the topic. The goal of the literature review is to learn what research has been conducted on the topic of interest? and how has it been conducted? and what are the gaps in the knowledge? As any replication of the study already existing in the literature is not worth repeating as it is.

Examples of research topics in nursing:

• Older adults coping with multiple chronic health conditions
• Non-pharmacological interventions for the behavioral symptoms of dementia and delirium.
• Non-pharmacological interventions for delirium in persons with dementia
• Medical Error Reduction
• Infection Control
