Research Critiques

Prepare this assignment as a 750-1,000 word paper using the instructor feedback from the previous course
assignments and the guidelines below.
PICOT Question
Revise the PICOT question you wrote in the Topic 1 assignment using the feedback you received from your
instructor.
The final PICOT question will provide a framework for your capstone project (the project students must
complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).
Research Critiques
In the Topic 2 and Topic 3 assignments, you completed a qualitative and quantitative research critique on
two articles for each type of study (4 articles total). Use the feedback you received from your instructor on
these assignments to finalize the critical analysis of each study by making appropriate revisions.
The completed analysis should connect to your identified practice problem of interest that is the basis for
your PICOT question.
Refer to “Research Critiques and PICOT Guidelines – Final Draft.” Questions under each heading should
be addressed as a narrative in the structure of a formal paper.
Proposed Evidence-Based Practice Change
Discuss the link between the PICOT question, the research articles, and the nursing practice problem you
identified. Include relevant details and supporting explanation and use that information to propose
evidence-based practice changes.
