NURS 684 Discussion 7 Thread 3

What is your question?

Read AJN articles #3: AJN_03_PICOT_Question_March_2010.pdf

Identify the focus for your PICOT question. Reflect on the scoping literature search you completed for Workshop II. Think about the following:

~ Page 59 of article 3 presents a table with 2 descriptions of question approach: Background and Foreground.

~ Page 60 of the article provides a table which identifies the different forms of a PICO(T) question. [NOTE: Not all question types have T: Timing].

~ Turn to page 61; there are 2 practice scenarios in the grey box.

For Thread 3: Choose one (1) of the two (2) practice scenarios (Grey box, p, 61 AJN Article 3).

~ Post your answer to  Question 2: Scenario 1 OR Question 2: Scenario 2.

~ Include the following in your post: 1) Develop a unique PICOT question for your scenario; do not copy from a previous post. 2) Identify if your question is a foreground or background question (p. 59). Explain. 3) Identify the Question type from the template listing (p. 60). Explain.
