The purpose of assignments Part 1 – Part 3 is to gradually guide the student in developing the signature assignment. The idea is for the student to take a stepwise approach to completing the signature assignment. The signature assignment will be broken up into three steps: STEP 1 – Introduction and Overview of the Problem; STEP 2 – Project Purpose Statement, Background & Significance and PICOt Formatted Clinical Project Question; and STEP 3 – Literature Review and Critical Appraisal of the Literature. The three steps, when completed, will be combined in the final Signature Assignment formal paper in Week 8.
This week’s assignment is STEP 1 – Introduction and Problem Statement.
First, the student will select a clinical question from the Approved List of PICOt/Clinical Questions or seek approval for a question from the course professor only for Nurse Educator and Health Care Leadership MSN majors who wish to tailor their research question to their specialized major. The student will select an approved topic from the list (or with faculty approval as previously stated) and will customize the question to meet his or her interest.
Next, the student will use the outline below and submit via a Word doc to the assignment link.
Provide a title that conveys or describes the assignment.
Introduction – Provide an introduction to your topic or project. The introduction gives the reader an accurate, concrete understanding what the project will cover and what can be gained from implementation of this project.
Overview of the Problem – Provide a synopsis of the problem and some indication of why the problem is worth exploring or what contribution the proposed project is apt to make to practice.
References – Cite references using APA 7th ed. Manual.
Format: Completed Word doc with references in APA 7th ed. format
This paper should be about 5 pages long NOT counting the title page or reference page.
You stated in your PICOT question what you thought you might want to explore for a NURS 600 project proposal. For this assignment, you must select a clinical question from the Approved List of PICOT/Clinical Questions that to your PICOT. This Lists supports the College of Nursing. Emphasis for clinical projects proposed by graduating students. The subject you pick relates to your PICOT but it will not replace your PICOT
Next, you will use the outline below to write your paper using the headings in bold
Title page with the Title of your project idea, course name and number, your name, my name, and the date. Title page is its own page.
Introduction – Provide an introduction to your topic or project. The introduction gives the reader an accurate, concrete understanding what the project will cover and what can be gained from implementation of this project. This is page 1 of your paper
Overview of the Problem – Provide a synopsis of the problem and some indication of why the problem is worth exploring or what contribution the proposed project is apt to make to practice.
Conclusion – give a closing summary of the problem and its effect on practice.
Reference page: Cite references using APA 7th ed. Manual
My picot question that I used last time in discussion:
Breast cancer is more common in women over 40 than in younger women (Chin et al., 2021). Early screening may aid in detecting breast cancer, allowing diagnosed individuals to begin treatment as soon as possible. Unfortunately, many women are unaware of the advantages of breast cancer screening or of the screening procedures that have shown to be most successful in the past. Death rates from breast cancer may be reduced by using mammography for early diagnosis in women over 40 with average risks, such as a family history of the disease (Bamidele et al., 2022). Mammography is a crucial screening tool for women since it may lower death rates; hence, average-risk women should undergo breast cancer screening at a level that affords them a similar probability of survival (Sinicrope et al., 2020).
In women over 40 with average cancer risks, such as family history (P), does mammography-based early detection of breast cancer (I) compared to the usual breast cancer screening (C) lower the mortality rate (O) within six months (T)?
Population: The patient population involves women over 40 with average cancer risks, such as a family history.
Intervention: Mammography-based early detection of breast cancer.
Comparison: The intervention is compared with the usual nursing practice involving breast cancer screening.
Outcome: The outcome that the intervention seeks to achieve is a lowering of the mortality rate.
Time: The time frame for implementing this program is six months. This time is adequate for evaluating the effectiveness of the intervention.
This topic is vital since it will help nurses and clinicians understand the prevalence of breast cancer among women aged above 40 with cancer risks. They will also establish the effectiveness of administering mammography-based early detection of breast cancer among this population (Brown et al., 2023).
