Evidence on Need for Improvement Significance & Intervention.

Locate and share evidence substantiating the need for improvement or challenge and the significance of that need.

Search the research literature to find a total of four peer-reviewed studies. Find two peer-reviewed studies that focus on the need for improvement associated with the identified health care or public health challenge and the significance of that improvement. Then, find two different peer-reviewed studies that focus on evidence of what is currently being done to make such an improvement and how your intervention is related to that improvement.

Questions to guide your search for evidence to substantiate the need to improve include:

What is currently known about the challenge, according to the literature?
How far-reaching is the challenge, according to the literature?
What are the significant consequences of the challenge, according to the literature?
What are the implications of no improvement, according to the literature?
Questions to guide your search for evidence to substantiate the significance of that improvement include:

What improvement activities or actions are currently being taken, according to the literature?
Is overarching guidance for improvement being provided, according to the literature?
What is the value or benefit of your capstone project, according to the literature? What positive contributions will it make to the organization?
Attach a literature review for all four of the peer-reviewed studies. Make sure to include an introductory statement that describes the identified challenge. Recall that a literature review should include, but is not limited to, the following information about a peer-reviewed study or article:

Authors and date of publication.
Primary purpose of the study.
Methodology and design used.
Type of data analyses.
Significant results and findings.
Most importantly: How the findings relate to the need for improvement and the significance of that improvement.
Part B

Instructions

Write a paper synthesizing the research evidence that substantiates the need for improvement and the significance of that improvement with respect to the identified challenge.

Requirements

The requirements outlined below correspond to the scoring guide criteria, so be sure to address each main point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed. In addition, be sure to note the requirements for the format of your paper, its length, and supporting evidence.

Refine your literature review by summarizing each study’s purpose, methods, results, and implications and how each study relates to the need for improvement and significance of that improvement. Include:
The date of publication.
Primary purpose of the study.
Methodology and design used.
Significant findings.
Complete a rapid critical appraisal of each study’s methods and the evidence it produced. Address the following questions:
Does this study address a clearly focused research question?
Did the study use valid methods to address this question?
Are the valid results of this study important?
Are these valid, important results applicable to my population?
Is the study recent (published within the last 5 years)?
What is the experience of the authors or practitioners who created it?
Synthesize research evidence from all of the studies to substantiate the need for improvement and the significance of that improvement. Address the following questions pertaining to the evidence:
Does it answer my PICO(T) question?
Does it clearly support my points?
Is it recent?
Is it logical?
What is the experience of the authors or practitioners who created it?
What other evidence challenges it?
How important is it?
How relevant is it to my project’s study focus?
What is its significance?
In what ways is it consistent with other evidence I have collected, and in what ways is it different?
Synthesize multiple sources into key themes or findings.
Additional Requirements

Written communication: Format your document using APA style. Be sure to include:
