Turn in a reference page in APA format. You must use three (3) or more relevant sources; to ensure the readings are relevant and current, the selected peer reviewed article must have been written within the past three (3) years.
Submit your completed assignment by following the directions linked below. Please check the Course Calendar for specific due dates.
article critique
Please write a critique on a given article.
Please follow the rubric.
1. Is the research study relevant to the study of nursing, (be specific and include examples from the article)?
2. Is the method/design appropriate in terms of the research question/hypothesis?
What was the research question/hypothesis? Was it clearly stated?
Write how data was collected, method, procedure, sample. also write how data were analyzed.
Key elements are discussed, and identification of items should be included. Provide a description of each of these key elements.
3. What is the theoretical context? See chapter 7 in Polit & Beck. The terms theoretical and conceptual frameworks are used interchangeably. Theories are used to describe, predict, explain, and to control phenomena. (Theoria is a Greek Word that means beholding or speculation).
“Theoretical frameworks provide the organization for the study. It guides the researcher in the interpretations of the results. the importance of the theory is dependent on the degree of research based evidence and level of its theory development.
There are four levels of theory development
1) factor isolating (describe phenomena)
2) Factor relating (explain phenomena),
3) Situation relating (predict the relationships between/among phenomena),
4) Situation producing (control phenomena and relationships
**If your article does not have a theoretical framework what do you suggest based on Polit & Beck Chapter 7?
4. Describe the results of the study (identify if they are believable or not)
5. Are the results significant? In what way-explain use examples?
6. Are the results transferable? How? Transferability refers to the readers of the research to make connections but invites readers of research to make connections between elements of a study and their own experience. Transferability does not involve broad claims. How does this research apply to YOUR specific practice as a Registered Nurse?
According to Brown (2005), Transferability can be enhanced by providing what is often referred to as thick description (i.e., giving enough detail so the readers can decide for themselves if the results
are transferable to their own contexts).
7. Implications for nursing practice, be specific how would this study impact nursing practice (use specific examples from the article)?
8. Implications for future research, be specific and use examples from the article.
The paper shall reflect a scholarly effort; proper grammar, coherence, spelling, and accurately use APA format. Have someone proof read your paper. Read your paper out loud to yourself.
To Prepare:
Then Post a discussion post of at least two dissemination strategies you would be most inclined to use and explain why. Explain which dissemination strategies you would be least inclined to use and explain why. Identify at least two barriers you might encounter when using the dissemination strategies you are most inclined to use. Be specific and provide examples. Explain how you might overcome the barriers you identified. please provide at least 3 references
The resources:
Hello, this work is on Advanced Pathophysiology, it must have a minimum of 300 words and a bibliographic reference. The bibliography used on the topic is McCance, K. L. & Huether, S. E. (2019). Pathophysiology: the biological basis of diseases in adults and children. But you can use another one in addition to this one.
1. Which form of cellular adaptation occurs because of decreased work demands on the cell? Explain your answer.
A. Hypertrophy
B. Hyperplasia
C. Atrophy
D. Metaplasia
Mixed methods research designs combine quantitative and qualitative research methods to answer research questions requiring both perspectives. Describe the pros and cons of a mixed method research design. Please include 400 words in your initial post with two scholarly references by Wednesday midnight. Please answer two peers by Saturday midnight with 200 words.
An explanation of your practice issue. ( Psych No shows and medication non-adherence) Then, describe two middle-range theories that are most valuable in addressing this issue and explain why. Be specific and provide examples.
Describe the problem or issue that your project will address.
1.
Physicians frequently receive medication samples from pharmaceutical reps. These samples are often distributed to patients. Patients may not be charged for these samples, although an administration fee may be charged if the drug must be delivered in an injection. It could also include special grafting material. In this case, the physician could charge for applying the graft, but not for the graft material.
It is allergy season and a close friend has asked if you can obtain samples for the symptoms since the friend is not employed and cannot afford to purchase from the pharmacy.
Would it be appropriate to do this since there was no cost to the physician? If not, how would you respond to the friend?
2.
Physicians have been caught charging for the samples. Your physician instructs you to charge the patient for the free sample because the practice needs the money & the patient “probably won’t know the difference”. How would you handle such a request?
3.
Search the internet for “Anti-kickback statue” and “Stark” violations. These are federally mandated guidelines that are subject to severe penalties for violations.
Now apply to the following scenario:
A pharmaceutical rep offers the physician tickets to a major sporting event if the physician will agree to purchase all of their drugs from this rep. If the physician accepts, will this violate one of these federal guidelines?
MY NUMBER ASSIGNED WAS 1 WHICH IS: **What is the nurse’s responsibility with a perspective organ donation? What are some absolute contraindications for donation, and what is the difference between organ and tissue donation?
Each student will be assigned a number randomly. Whatever your number is, select the corresponding topic below, then post a minimum of 5 bullet points about the topic.
Your bullet points should address key components of the topic, such as what, how, who, & why. This information should not be basic things you learned in Med/Surg, but rather advanced critical care based.
Think about this as a group effort to create a study guide. Use ONLY your textbook, but do not cut & paste from the book.
Then create, find, or borrow a test style question about your topic & post at the bottom of your bullet points. The format needs to be multiple choice or select all that apply. Think NCLEX style.
PART 2:
Part 2:
Interview:You will take a few minutes and ask 2 people about their personal coping mechanisms for dealing with the stress of working in healthcare during this unique time of Covid. Stress can be physical, emotional, spiritual, or any combination of triggers. Ask a diverse variety of people, don’t forget those in other departments at different points of hierarchy. For example, ask your unit manager, environmental services, volunteers, patients, fellow nurses, etc. Write 2-3 paragraphs on your findings and impressions while respecting the person’s identity.
After reading each of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected, use the Matrix Worksheet template to analyze the methodologies applied in each of the four peer-reviewed articles. Your analysis should include the following:
