In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. The ability to articulate research data and summarize relevant content supports the student's ability to further develop and synthesize the assignments that constitute the components of the capstone project. My capstone project is on catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI). Please use the attached Literature Evaluation Table to complete assignment. I will also attach an example.
The assignment will be used to develop a written implementation plan.
For this assignment, provide a synopsis of the review of the research literature. Using the "Literature Evaluation Table," determine the level and strength of the evidence for each of the eight research articles you have selected. The articles should be current (within the last 5 years) and closely relate to the PICOT question.
| Patient Problem (P) | Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) |
| Intervention (I) | Practice change with the use of bundle care plan
|
| Comparison (I) | Intermittent catheterization |
| Outcome (O) | Prevention and treatment of CAUTI |
| Time (T) | 10 weeks |
The articles may include quantitative research, descriptive analyses, longitudinal studies, or meta-analysis articles. A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project.
While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references.
This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
To further assist you here are some articles I have used:
