NRS 433 Research Critique and PICOT Statement Rough Draft
This is a two-part rough draft assignment consisting of a Research Critique and PICOT Statement. The assignment should be 1,500-1,750 words.
The final draft will be submitted in Topic 5.
Research Critique
Prepare a critical analysis of a qualitative and a quantitative study focusing on the problem statement,study purpose, research question, literature review, and theoretical framework. This can be one of the selected articles from your previous literature review or a new peer reviewed
article. The completed analysis should connect to your identified practice problem of interest.
Refer to “Research Critique Guidelines.” Questions under each heading should be addressed as a narrative in the structure of a formal paper.
PICOT Statement
The PICOT statement will provide a framework for your capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).
Read the PICOT article “Evidence- Based Practice, Step by Step: Asking the Clinical Question: A Key Step in Evidence-Based Practice” along with the “Chapter 18: Using Research in Evidence-Based Nursing Practice” PowerPoint resource.
The first step of the EBP process is to develop a question from the practice problem you drafted in Topic
1. Start with the patient and identify the clinical problems or issues that arise from clinical care. Consider the research critique as you draft your
PICOT statement.
Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT statement in an area of interest to you, which is applicable to your proposed capstone project. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
