Evidence-Based Practice Project: Literature Review

Assessment Description

The purpose of this assignment is to write a review of the research articles you evaluated in your Topic 5 “Evidence-Based Practice Project: Evaluation of Literature” assignment. If you have been directed by your instructor to select different articles in order to meet the requirements for a literature review or to better support your evidence-based practice project proposal, complete this step prior to writing your review.

A literature review provides a concise comparison of the literature for the reader and explains how the research demonstrates support for your PICOT. You will use the literature review in this assignment in NUR-590, during which you will write a final paper detailing your evidence-based practice project proposal.

In a paper of 1,250-1,500, select eight of the ten articles you evaluated that demonstrate clear support for your evidence-based practice and complete the following for each article:

  1. Introduction – Describe the clinical issue or problem you are addressing. Present your PICOT statement.
  2. Search methods – Describe your search strategy and the criteria that you used in choosing and searching for your articles.
  3. Synthesis of the literature – For each article, write a paragraph discussing the main components (subjects, methods, key findings) and provide rationale for how the article supports your PICOT.
  4. Comparison of articles – Compare the articles (similarities and differences, themes, methods, conclusions, limitations, controversies).
  5. Suggestions for future research: Based on your analysis of the literature, discuss identified gaps and which areas require further research.
  6. Conclusion – Provide a summary statement of what you found in the literature.
  7. Complete the “APA Writing Checklist” to ensure that your paper adheres to APA style and formatting criteria and general guidelines for academic writing. Include the completed checklist as an appendix at the end of your paper.
