In this assignment, students will be asked to create the initial steps of an evidence based practice project using your topic and the article you found in Module Two.  After completing the Module Four readings, the student will create a PICO question based on their topic. A PICOT worksheet has been included for you (below) to assist you with creating a PICO question. The student will locate several additional resources to answer their PICO question, and write this information into a paper using APA style. Please click on the link: Assignment EBP Project – Finding the Evidence (below) for more information, and watch your due dates and times carefully. For additional help, use the discussion board link found below this assignment.

Be very careful not to plagiarize in this assignment. Remember, if you use a source and do not cite it, that is plagiarism. If you have a direct quote from any source and it is not clearly indicated as a quote in your paper, then even if you cite it that is plagiarism. IF SEVEN OR MORE WORDS ARE THE SAME AS ANY SOURCE THAT IS A QUOTE AND MUST BE MARKED AS SUCH. If you only change one or two words from the source but keep the order of the ideas the same as in the original, that is plagiarism. Go back to the plagiarism tutorial or ask a librarian if you have any questions. Any instances of plagiarism detected will result in your failing the course and being referred to the Office of Community Standards.

First, identify each element of your PICO on the line below, then take a look at the templates below to help you formulate a PICO(T) question.

P: Population/disease ( i.e. age, gender, ethnicity, with a certain disorder)

P: ____________________________________________________________________

I: Intervention or Variable of Interest (exposure to a disease, risk behavior, prognostic factor) Note: Not every question will have an intervention (as in a meaning question – see below).

I: ____________________________________________________________________

C: Comparison: (could be a placebo or “business as usual” as in no disease, absence of risk factor).  Note: This is not used in a meaning question – see below.

C: ____________________________________________________________________

O: Outcome: (risk of disease, accuracy of a diagnosis, rate of occurrence of adverse outcome)

O: ____________________________________________________________________

T: Time: The time it takes to demonstrate an outcome (e.g. the time it takes for the intervention to achieve an outcome or how long participants are observed). This is an optional “add-on” for a PICO question.
