Formulating the Research Question, Problem Statement, Research Purpose

In the Week 1 discussion forum you had an opportunity to present a potential problem and an innovative solution specific to your role specialization. In addition, you have reviewed the literature to identify qualitative and quantitative research articles and submitted annotated bibliographies to provide evidence supporting the problem.

Considering the feedback provided to you by the faculty member it is now time to prepare your problem statement, research purpose, and research question.

First share your refined problem and proposed solution (given your review of literature this may have changed depending on the evidence you were able to provide). Next, follow the steps to help define your research question.

  1. Craft the problem statement and research purpose.
  2. Design your research question aimed at solving (a part of) the problem and include the following components which will focus the literature review.

PICOT Question:

Patient, Population or Problem

  1. What are the characteristics of the patient or population?
  2. What is the condition or disease you are interested in?

Intervention or exposure

  1. What do you want to do with this patient (e.g. treat, diagnose, observe)?

Comparison

  1. What is the alternative to the intervention (e.g. placebo, different drug, surgery)?

Outcome

  1. What are the relevant outcomes (e.g. morbidity, death, complications)?
  2. Ensure that the research question is answerable, feasible and clinically relevant

The next step in Submissions Area will be to develop a research hypothesis from the research question.

You must provide a references for entire posting. Please use APA for your reference citation. You will also have citations in the text of your responses as well as references at the end of your responses. References for other readings need to be current, within the last three to five years.

1. Theories seem to be such esoteric notions for a profession that seemed to function well for decades, without highlighting them. Can our practice history guide our practice future with theories? Why/not?   2. Define both rationalism and empiricism. Differentiate between these two scientific approaches.

Module 4 – Case

CLAS STANDARDS

Case Assignment

For this assignment, read the background information and then learn about Diane Mathis’ experience with non-English-speaking patients.

Read the Intro and the Case Story. Then listen to the Lecture. http://support.mchtraining.net/national_ccce/case2/home.html

In a paper:

  1. Compare and contrast the range of medical language interpretation and describe what is considered “best practice.”
  2. Consider and describe at least two scenarios in situations in which patients are non-English speaking and qualified language interpretation is not provided. What are the key ethical principles to be considered? What are the implications for the patient in each alternative?
  3. How would the scenario relate to your own health profession’s code of ethics? If you are not currently working in health care, you should use the code of ethics for the profession you plan to pursue upon graduation.
  4. Compare and contrast the model of medical practice between the U.S. (Western scientific paradigm of medicine) and another country with a different culture.
  5. Which healthcare model is better and why?
