The paper summarizes the evidence you found through your literature search and critique. the format of this paper will be similar to a literature review found in a research article. Start with the idea of what you are studying (my clinical question), summarize the 8 studies you chose, and then synthesizes your findings. Do you have enough evidence to recommend a practice change or not?
