This project will take you through the steps of evidence-based practice (EBP). According to QSEN, EBP is to “integrate best current evidence with clinical expertise and patient/family preferences and values for delivery of optimal health care”
Your written assignment for the course project should be a 2-3 page APA paper (not including title page and the reference page) that describes the clinical problem and the following:
- Reason for choosing this topic
- The PICOT question “In female patient’s diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and of reproductive age, does the use of metformin increase the chances of pregnancy compared to diet change and weight loss?”
- Possible integration of the evidence that you found in clinical practice
- Methods to evaluate the effectiveness of implementation
Staff Development PowerPoint – Your staff development PPT presentation will include the information from your written paper in 10-12 slides (including a title and reference slide in APA format). Make sure to include speaker notes at the bottom of your slide to explain the content of your slide.
