Assignment: Appraisal of Evidence

Assignment: Appraisal of Evidence ORDER NOW FOR CUSTOMIZED AND ORIGINAL ESSAY PAPERS ON Assignment: Appraisal of Evidence Section C To begin, work through the reference list that was created in the “Section B: Problem Description” assignment in Topic 2. Appraise each resource using the “Rapid Critical Appraisal Checklists,” available in the textbook appendix. The specific checklist you use will be determined by the type of evidence within the resource. Assignment: Appraisal of Evidence Develop a research table to organize and summarize the research studies. Using a summary table allows you to be more concise in your narrative description. Only research studies used to support your intervention are summarized in this table. Refer to the “Evaluation Table Template,” available in the textbook appendix. Use the “Evaluation Table Template” as an adaptable template. Write a narrative of 750-1,000 words (not including the title page and references) that presents the research support for the projects problem and proposed solution. Make sure to do the following: Assignment: Appraisal of Evidence Include a description of the search method (e.g., databases, keywords, criteria for inclusion and exclusion, and number of studies that fit your criteria). Summarize all of the research studies used as evidence. The essential components of each study need to be described so that readers can evaluate its scientific merit, including study strengths and limitations. Incorporate a description of the validity of the internal and external research. It is essential to make sure that the research support for the proposed solution is sufficient, compelling, relevant, and from peer-reviewed professional journal articles. Although you will not be submitting the checklist information or the evaluation table you design in Topic 3 with the narrative, the checklist information and evaluation table should be placed in the appendices for the final paper. Prepare this assignment according to the APA 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. Upon receiving feedback from the instructor, refine “Section C: Literature Support” for your final submission. This will be a continuous process throughout the course for each section. ebp_section_b_julie_braylock.docx summary_of_reviewed_evidence.docx section_c_rubric.docx Running head: MOVING FOR HOME 1 Section B EBP Problem Statement: Moving For Home Julie Braylock Grand Canyon University: Nurs-699 February 4, 2018 Professor Cindy Boyer MOVING FOR HOME 2 According to (Truong et al, 2009) “In the Intensive Care Unit, critically ill mechanically ventilated patients have been considered too ill to move leaving them to traditional bed rest to which can lead to detrimental effects on the patients physical, emotional, and social health. ICU acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is an accumulative effect of prolonged bed rest, malnutrition, and systemic inflammation”. The author goes on to explain that “Once a patient has been compromised by ICU-AW, the patient may experience prolonged mechanical ventilation, prolonged hospitalization due to secondary diagnoses from hospital acquired injuries (HAIs), muscle wasting requiring ECF placement, and decreased quality of life due to prolonged effects of immobility” (Truong et al 2009). The general weakness of the muscles develops in patients admitted in the ICU due to acute illness or treatment of the disease. The loss of muscle mass and muscle strength in patients in the ICU was first recorded in the nineteenth century (Hermans & Berghe, 2015). The main complications related to ICU-AW are critical illness polyneuropathy and critical illness myopathy. The incidence rate of ICU-AW is reported to be 25% to 100% (Zororwitz, 2016). It is a frequent complication of a critical illness which is linked to high morbidity and mortality rates. Additionally, the condition has long-term consequences in patients who are discharged from the hospital for an instance post-intensive care syndrome which comprise of mental, physical and cognitive dysfunction. ICU-AW is associated with multiple dysfunctions of organs, and thus patients have activity limitations. These patients require physical assistance mostly from the nurses to perform even the most basic activities related to bed movement.Assignment: Appraisal of Evidence The purpose of this paper is to provide a proposed evidence-based project whose aim is to reduce the effects of ICU-AW and decrease hospitalization duration for patients with mechanical intubation in Spring Valley Hospital. MOVING FOR HOME 3 The proposed problem is an issue not only in the US but a globally. Patients in ICU are at a higher risk of losing muscle mass and mass strength due to reduced physical inactivity and increased metabolism. Additionally, decreased pathophysiological mechanisms which include metabolic, microvascular, electrical and bioenergetic adaptation give rise to muscle atrophy and reduced muscle mass and strength (Zhou et al, 2014). From the proposed problem, researching Spring Valley Hospital would be of great importance as there would be an evidence-based project that will be used in the field of nursing. Moreover, the hospital will receive a good reputation. Weaning off mechanical ventilation is related to problems of the diaphragm, intercostals muscles, phrenic nerves and other accessory respiratory muscles. In rare cases, facial muscles may be affected, and thus paralysis of the muscles surrounding the eye may occur. The research will benefit patients who are in the ICU all over the world as well as nurses. EBP in the hospital will only be possible if there is collaboration among hospital workers and support from peers and colleagues as well as managerial support. When conducting this research, it is essential to develop a PICOT statement to enable useful interview due to this epidemic. The question could be: In critically ill mechanically ventilated patients (P), does the implementation of early mobility to reduce the risk of ICU acquired weakness (ICU-AW) (I) compared to use of complete bed rest (C) decrease hospital stay (O) over time (T)? The purpose of conducting this research is to find out practical interventions that will facilitate reduction of the effects of ICU-AW and aid in the reduction of hospital stay for patients with mechanical intubation. This will, therefore, reduce morbidity and mortality rate in the US as well as reduce the long-term complications for patients who are discharged. The EBP is essential in the field of nursing as it provides practical care for patients with similar conditions with the intention of improving the outcome of the patients.
