Assignment.
Introduction:
The purpose of the Capstone Project is for you to show your understanding of
the course materials and your ability to communicate at the college level. For
your Capstone Project, you will be performing research on a real-life healthcare
organization. Drawing upon your learning in previous courses, you will be asked
to analyze various facets and provide a detailed picture of the organization.
As you compile the information, consider what value each process adds to the
company and how quality improvements might improve outcomes.
Compose your report using Standard American English as described in the APA
guidelines available at Kaplan University Writing Center. You need to follow
formal APA formatting and citation style for the project and include a title page
and a reference page. Make sure you cite your resources in the text and on the
reference page using proper APA formatting and citation style. The citations and
references should match.
Your instructor will make suggestions for improvement and provide follow-up
needed for Sections 1 and 2. It is your responsibility to incorporate instructor
feedback into the final presentation in order to achieve full credit.

While the implementation plan prepares students to apply their research to the problem

Question descriptionWhile the implementation plan prepares students to apply their research to the problem or issue they have identified for their capstone change proposal project, the literature review enables students to map out and move into the active planning and development stages of the project.
A literature review analyzes how current research supports the PICOT, as well as identifies what is known and what is not known in the evidence. Students will use the information from the earlier PICOT Statement Paper and Literature Evaluation Table assignments to develop a 750-1,000 word review that includes the following sections:

  1. Title page
  2. Introduction section
  3. A comparison of research questions
  4. A comparison of sample populations
  5. A comparison of the limitations of the study
  6. A conclusion section, incorporating recommendations for further research

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin. Please refer to the directions in the Student Success Center.

Practice Issue and Evidence Summary

Question descriptionCapstone Project Milestone 1:
Practice Issue and Evidence Summary Guidelines
Purpose
Clear identification of the practice issue is the first step in evidence-based nursing. Next, the evidence is reviewed to determine the best intervention to change practice outcomes. Completion of the milestone will include identification of the practice issue using the ACE Star model of Knowledge Transformation and a review of the evidence that will support an intervention that will change outcomes. The evidence summary will be conducted through the ‘breaking down’ of a systematic review on your topic for your change project.
Practice Issue Worksheet Directions

  1. Practice Issue Worksheet:
    1. Read the guidelines including the grading rubrics below.You will use this worksheet to document the practice issue presented and approved by your instructor in the Week 2 Discussions (for your reference the topic that was approved by my instructor is underlined and in bold, see below).
      The Clinical Question
      Professor and classmates,

      Our lesson this week states “a systematic analysis of a situation serves as the basis for an effective search for the best evidence” (CCN, 2016. Para.7.) Too often I encounter patients who have a history of MI and are unaware of healthy diets, safe exercise routines, smoking cessation resources. PICO is a systematic approach to recognize, research and improve patient care.My question is: Can post management of an MI reduce readmissions for further complications and reoccurrences? P- Target population is over the age of 25, male or female.I- Implement diet programs, safe exercise routines and educational material along with prevention resources.C- Hospitals to continue current management and continued increase in hospital costs, readmissions and increased surgeries vs. implementing early prevention programs and post management. O- Desired outcome will be to see a decrease in patients being re-hospitalized for myocardial infarctions and a decrease in surgeries.T- no time factor.By detecting and finding what patients are doing wrong and seeing how they can improve we can help them decrease triggers. I developed this question after coming across a number of patients who after have an MI were readmitted for triggers and after speaking to them realized they had little education on appropriate measures such as: how to follow appropriate diet, safe exercise routines, how to properly take nitroglycerin and smoking cessation. “An essential component of evidence-based practice, the literature search is important to any research and publication activity because it enables researchers to acquire a better understanding of the topic and an awareness of relevant literature” (Dearholt & Dang, 2012, p.81).Chamberlain College of Nursing.
