Population intervention, control, and outcomes

Imagine that you are a staff nurse that has identified a problem in your unit. You have created a PICO (population intervention, control, and outcomes) and taken the draft to your supervisor. Your supervisor asks you to complete a brief report using your PICO and two articles (one qualitative and one quantitative) to support your practice change suggestion.

The report should include

• A detailed summary of the problem identified in the unit, along with the PICO
• A summary of the articles’ findings
• The reliability of the articles selected to defend your practice change suggestion
