EVIDENCE-BASED PROBLEM AND QUESTION

To begin your EBP project for the course, you will develop your PICO question using the Evidence-Based Problem and Question template in this week’s resources. The template covers all three parts of this assignment:

Identify one nurse sensitive indicator that you think is a problem in your workplace. Focus on everyday nursing practice issues such as, falls, pressure ulcers, unsafe work environment, pain assessment, peripheral intravenous, physical restraints, healthcare associated infections, or education.

Use the four PICO categories to describe this clinical problem. For the purposes of this class it is not recommended students attempt to select the topics of staff ratios/mix or turnover, job satisfaction, nursing care hours provided per patient day, or insurance issues.

Develop an answerable EBP PICO format question.
