As a group, select a topic that you will use for your final project, and develop a PICO question regarding this problem. To develop this clinical question, you will choose a topic of interest based on clinical problems in your clinical practice. You will then use the PICO method of question development as a guide.
P—Patient/population/problem
I—Intervention
C—Comparison (to another intervention/no intervention)
O—Outcomes
Note that while you are to develop your PICO question as a group, each individual must submit a copy. Make sure to include the names of your group members in your submission.

Week 5 Assignment
Tuskegee Syphilis Case Study
Identify the consequences to the study participants because of the lack of ethical practices on the part of the researcher. Answer the following questions (Make sure you follow the grading rubric) This should be a well thought out reflection with citations and references. Do not just answer the questions. It should be a 5 – 6 page paper in APA format:
Eunice Rivers, the African-American nurse who played a vital role by befriending the Tuskegee Study participants and assuring their cooperation has justified her support for the project in terms of the fact that the attention that she and the other medical staff gave to the men was more than a non-enrolled, poor, Macon County resident was likely to receive. If you had been in her place, do you think you would have come to the same conclusion with regard to the ethical choices available to you?
In what sense were the premises and the practices of the Tuskegee study racist? An important question to explore when examining accusations of human rights violations or of prejudicial behavior is whether the standards being applied are those of the time the action took place, and if not, whether this should affect any judgment about the ethics of the situation. (Conforming to official social standards does not necessarily imply that you are behaving in an ethical manner. Most people would consider the medical experiments of the Nazi Doctors to be unethical even though they conformed to the principles spelled out in the Nazi ideology imposed on Germany by the Third Reich.)
