Formulate Searchable Clinical Questions (graded, 25 points)

Read the assigned case study and formulate a searchable, clinical question in the PICO(T) format. There are several potential questions that could be asked. Identify if the focus of your question is assessment, etiology, treatment, or prognosis.

The case study for this discussion is located in the Assignments tab for Unit 2.

Understanding PICO(T)-formatted clinical questions are important in nursing research. PICO(T) is a mnemonic used to describe the four or five elements of a good clinical question: POPULATION, INTERVENTION, COMPARISON, OUTCOME and TIMEFRAME (P,I,C,O,T). These components of a clinical question also represent different types of variables.  The PICOT approach will help, clinicians and researchers, identify and answer relevant clinical study questions (Riva, J., Malik, K., Burnie, S., Endicott, A., and Busse, J. (2012).

The Course Outcomes (COs) we will apply in Unit 2 include:

· Examine the sources of evidence that contribute to professional nursing practice.

· Apply research principles to the interpretation of the content of published research studies.

For our discussion this week, please read the assigned CHF Case Study found in the Unit 2 Assignment tab. Formulate a searchable clinical question in the PICO (T) format based upon concerns in this case study. There are several potential questions that could be asked, but it is only necessary to identify ONE.
