Evidence-based practice evaluation
Take the topic you have selected for your Couple, Family or Systems/Relational Issues Application paper and develop an evidence-based practice evaluation.
This paper will respond to the following content areas that align with the first 3 of the 5 A’s of Evidence-Based Practice:
Provide 3 background questions that would be relevant and inform your area of interest
Develop a foreground question using the PICOT format. USE THE PICOT FRAMEWORK TO BREAK UP YOUR QUESTION INTO EACH OF THE PICOT COMPONENTS.
Reviewing your PICOT question, identify the category of PICOT question it would be considered (i.e. Gibbs framework: Effectiveness, Prevention, Assessment, Description and Risk).
Using your background and PICOT questions, provide a comprehensive list of words or phrases that you would use during a literature search.
Identify at least three search platforms that you used to search key terms for your background and/or foreground (PICOT) questions.
Provide the rationale for the use of these particular platforms for your search
Provide at least 6 references for your background questions and at least 3 references relevant to your PICOT question using your search terms, submit the list of references with the assignment.
Using the EBP pyramid or Hierarchy of evidence, how would you classify or rate the strength of the articles identified from your search?
Based on your search, identify and summarize three findings from these articles that you view relevant to your topic of interest in general and/or your PICOT question in particular.
