Application 1: Identification of a Practice Issue for the Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Project
In many of the courses in the DNP program, you have been asked to analyze research literature when exploring issues in health care. Reflect now on an issue in your practice area that has different outcomes from what is supported by the literature. For example, the literature evidence notes that nosocomial infections are reduced when procedures such as hand washing, glove use, and isolation strategies are implemented. In your clinical area, you have implemented these strategies and you are not seeing a reduction in nosocomial infections.
For Application 1, you select an issue that will serve as the launching point for your Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Project.
Before you proceed with this assignment, you may wish to review the overview of the full EBP Project assignment. (see attached file)
To prepare for Application 1:

  • Consider      the specifics of your practicum setting, as well as practice-related      challenges in your specialty area that interest you. Brainstorm practice      issues in which an outcome is different from what would be expected      according to the research literature (based      on the PIICOT Question previously formulated).
  • Select      one issue to focus on for this assignment (based on the PIICOT Question previously formulated).
  • .      This will be your issue for the entire EBP Project, so be sure it is one      that will enable you to fulfill the project requirements (e.g., you can      develop new approaches to practice). You may wish to speak with your      Practicum Mentor about your selection.
  • Explore      the research literature on this issue.

To complete: In a 2-page paper, in APA format and at least 3 references, address the following as numbered below:
1) Introduction ending with a purpose statement (e.g. the purpose of this paper is…)
2) Provide a summary of the selected practice issue in which the outcome is different from what would be expected according to the research literature. (Note: The issue you select must be suitable for completing the entire EBP Project.)
3) Conclusion
PIICOT Statement
In patients in extended intensive care within an urban acute care facility in Eastern United States, how does early mobilization as recommended by National Institute of Health and Care Excellence clinical guidelines on rehabilitation of patients after critical illness impact early transfers from intensive care as measured 6 months post-implementation when compared to the current standard of care including minimal mobilization of patients?
P: Adult patients
I: in extended intensive care within an urban acute care facility
I: increased mobilization of the patients
C: minimal mobilization of the patients
To students: In addition to the Learning Resources and facilitated discussions provided each week, you are expected to integrate articles from peer-reviewed journals to inform and support your positions and conclusions in the Application Assignments. Graduate-level scholarship provides the foundation for your work and requires a higher level of evidence than lay references, such as the dictionary, Wikipedia, general Internet sites, nursing newspapers, expert opinion, and the like. 
Must include at least 1 reference from the list of provided Required Readings and at least 2 references from scholarly articles from peer-reviewed journals

Greek Influences
When early Greek philosophers developed theories in the premodern period, they challenged many dominant assumptions of this period. Socrates and Plato were two of the most influential early philosophers who addressed the issue of the good life. For these two philosophers, the good life was an ethical life.
Socrates was famous for his statement “Know thyself.” Psychologists throughout history have echoed this. Plato had some revolutionary ideas on what it means to be human. He was responsible for bringing dualism into popular thought. This had a profound influence on religion, philosophy, and Western thought as a whole.
What implications does the statement “Know thyself” have, along with other ideas of Socrates and Plato, for the process of human change?
How is this related to achieving the good life?
How will this impact the evaluation of a person’s degree of living the good life?
What was Plato’s understanding of human nature?
How did dualism influence this understanding?
Be sure to support your conclusions with information drawn from the online content, the textbook, and other credible, scholarly sources to substantiate the points you are making. Apply APA standards to for writing and citations to your work.
The paper should be 3-5 pages, double-spaced 12-point typescript, Times Roman font, with 1-inch margins all around, and free from grammatical errors. This page count includes the title page, text, and references. Name your assignment as follows:

Potency and efficacy are two of the most misunderstood concepts in the area of drug use. Many overdoses occur because the potency of the newly purchased drug is higher than that of the previously used drug. These concepts apply to drugs of abuse as well as over-the-counter medications.
Steven has a headache. He reaches for some pain relievers in his medicine cabinet. He finds two bottles: acetaminophen (325 mg) and ibuprofen (200 mg). The instructions for the acetaminophen say take 2 tablets
(650 mg total). The instructions for the ibuprofen say take 2 tablets (400 mg total). Steven assumes that because the dose is higher for the acetaminophen, it must work better.
To assist Steven with making an educated decision about which medication to take, complete the following:
What are potency and efficacy, and how are they different?
What other factors might influence Steven’s decision?
Write your initial response in 150–200 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
