Foley Catheter related Infections in the Intensive Care Unit

Project: Course Project: Part 1—Identifying a Researchable Problem
Formulating a question that targets the goal of your research is a challenging but essential task. The question plays a crucial role in all other aspects of the

research, including the determination of the research design and theoretical perspective to be applied, which data will be collected, and which tools will be used for

analysis. It is therefore essential to take the time to ensure that the research question addresses what you actually want to study. Doing so will increase your

likelihood of obtaining meaningful results.
In this first component of the Course Project, you formulate questions to address a particular nursing issue or problem. You use the PICOT model—patient/population,

intervention/issue, comparison, and outcome—outlined in the Learning Resources to design your questions.
To prepare:
•    Review the section beginning on page 75 of “ Nursing Research” written by Denise F. Polit and Cheryl Tatano Beck, titled, “Developing and Refining Research

Problems” in the course text, which focuses on analyzing the feasibility of a research problem.
•    Generate at least five questions that relate to the issue which you have identified. Use the criteria in your course text to select one question that would be

most appropriate in terms of significance, feasibility, and interest. Be prepared to explain your rationale.
•    Formulate a preliminary PICO question—one that is answerable—based on your analysis. What are the PICO variables (patient/population, intervention/issue,

comparison, and outcome) for this question?
Note: Not all of these variables may be appropriate to every question. Be sure to analyze which are and are not relevant to your specific question.
•    Using the PICOT variables that you determined for your question, develop a list of at least 10 keywords that could be used when conducting a literature search

to investigate current research pertaining to the question.
To complete:
Write a 3- to 4-page paper that includes the following:
•    A summary of your area of interest, an identification of the problem that you have selected, and an explanation of the significance of this problem for nursing

practice
•    The 5 questions you have generated and a description of how you analyzed them for feasibility
•    Your preliminary PICOT question and a description of each PICOT variable relevant to your question
•    At least 10 possible keywords that could be used when conducting a literature search for your PICOT question and a rationale for your selections
