In pediatric patients, what is the effect of psychological interventions when compared with applying no nursing interventions on their pain perception on distress during needle-related procedural pain?
1.Background & Proposed Interventions/Implementations:
Now that the problem has been identified, write in APA format several paragraphs providing background information on the topic. The amount of paragraphs you write varies topic-to-topic.
Sufficient background information helps your reader determine if you have a basic understanding of the research problem being investigated and promotes confidence in the overall quality of your planned intervention and/or findings. It will also aid your reader in understanding the depth of your problem. Keep this in mind because providing succinct background information can be an effective way to show that you have a clear grasp of key issues and concepts guiding your project.
You should be able to back up what you claim is the problem with data or quotes and paraphrases from people who have authority on the topic (i.e.: previous research, experts in that specific field).
Use the following as headers for your background information: history of the issue, current data on the issue (summarize this, you will describe more in the literature review), current organizational practices or activities to resolve the issue.
Proposed Interventions/Implementations:
Describe methods/activities to address this issue (what you would do to fix/correct the problem/issue during your practicum). Example: Develop an educational plan on diabetes training for nurses? Develop a checklist on use of a specific therapy?
Keep in mind that you are NOT going to actually perform your proposed intervention. You are planning and designing only.
Consider and describe: What do you plan to do as a part of your practicum? Meet with the nurse manager? Interview staff nurses? Observe a specific activity?
You are the student here–not the students you plan to teach. What student learning outcomes to you as a student want to achieve from this practicum? Make them measurable, realistic, and appropriate for your planned project. A minimum of 3 outcomes.
You can write this as:
Upon completion of practicum, the student will be able to:
