Every paper needs an introduction in this section. Also, be sure to include a purpose statement. Use the paper objectives to summary the purpose of the paper.
This is an example of a well done introduction: When an infant is born prematurely and admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), proper development and bonding with family is interrupted. The infant now needs to develop, bond with family and process painful procedures in an environment that is louder, brighter and more complicated than the womb.
One intervention to help a premature infant with this process is skin-to-skin holding which is simply when an infant is held skin-to-skin on the chest of their parent with the infant wearing only a diaper.
Studies have shown there are many benefits of skin to skin contact (kangaroo care) such as improved physiological stability, decreased stress and improved bonding with parents (Cho et al., 2016).
This paper will present a proposed evidenced practice change based on a review of research articles and development of a PICOT statement.
PICOT Statement
Put your PICOT Statement here. Example: In neonates admitted to the NICU, does skin to skin contact; i.e. kangaroo care (KC), compared to non-kangaroo conventional care increase and improve parental bonding and satisfaction, infant’s physiologic stability and development while admitted in NICU?
Population: infants admitted to NICU
Intervention: skin to skin contact/kangaroo care
Comparison: no kangaroo care
Outcome: improved parental bonding, satisfaction, infant physiologic stability
Timeline: while admitted to NICU
Revised Research Critiques
Cut and paste your Research Critiques here. Use the feedback I gave you to update the paper. It would be VERY helpful if you highlighted your new content in yellow so I can easily find the updated info. Use the following headings: backgrounds, methods, results ethical consideration and conclusion. Do not include your introductory paragraph as there is a section for that at the top of the paper. You will only have one reference list and that will go at the end of the paper.
Proposed -Evidence Based Practice Change
This is going to be all new content. Discuss the link between the PICOT statement, the research
articles, and the nursing practice problem you identified. Include relevant
details and supporting explanation and use that information to propose evidence-based practice changes (a
nursing practice that you want changed and that your research supports i.e.
implementation of bedside report). Be sure to include a conclusion to your
paper.
