Aim and Structure of the Assignment The assignment is a report style essay that requires students to examine an aspect of practice through a critical review of relevant research-based evidence, and to use their professional knowledge to discuss how the results from the research reviewed might contribute to the clinical effectiveness agenda in their workplace. Through this process, students will demonstrate an ability to understand the formulation of a practice-based question, search, identify and retrieve relevant information using electronic databases and other sources and critically review this body of evidence using a structured process. The results from this review should be a balanced consideration of the robustness of the research design and the validity of the results of the studies reviewed. Conclusions should be drawn by students about the findings from their review. Clinical (or practice-based) knowledge should then be used to demonstrate the relevance and application of the research reviewed to the workplace. Reference should be made to relevant models and frameworks (. the PARiHS framework or CASP tool), but not change management models. I want the Essay to look at BACK PAIN please The specific steps required to complete the assignment are: i. Formulate a research question and provide a rationale for the choice of topic in relation to your workplace. Demonstrate an understanding of formulating clinical questions using a structured framework such as PICO or SPiDER ii. Describe the search strategy used to identify, retrieve and select five pieces of research-based evidence. Describe the results from the search and justify the type and range of evidence selected for review linking to your PRISMA flow diagram included as appendix I and detail in a Summary Table as appendix II. These are mandatory appendices. iii. Undertake a critical appraisal of the selected evidence and draw appropriate conclusions from the review. Identify the appraisal tool used to support this process such as CASP, JBI etc. iv. Use clinical knowledge to discuss how the conclusions drawn from the review might contribute to the clinical effectiveness agenda in the workplace, highlighting any relevant professional issues and considering sustainability-related issues. Relevant models or frameworks should be used to support this discussion 9. Essay Structure The structure of the essay is such that the majority of the marks are allocated to the critical review of the research. It is important to remember, however, that all the elements detailed below, including a title, must be included in the essay. If any section is omitted the work will be referred irrespective of the quality of the remaining sections. The word limit is 3,000 words +/- 10% and the marks will be allocated as follows: Section Word Length Percentage Mark Title Cover Page To include:- Student . number (not name for anonymous marking) Module code and title Assignment title Submission date Actual word count Not included in the word count Mandatory Component Contents Page To include:- List of subtitles with accurate page guide Not included in the word count Mandatory Component Introduction From chosen question, apply rationale for choice in relation to your workplace and demonstrate understanding of formulation of clinical questions in relation to appropriate tools such as PICO(T) o SPiDER 150 10 Search Strategy Description of search strategy, search results, justification of type & range of five chosen papers 150 10 16 Critical Review Using a recognised framework such as CASP or JBI, critique five selected research papers. Consider robustness, appropriate question, research design, methods, methodologies, data collection, validity and replicability providing synthesis of findings and emerging themes. It is important to note that results based discussion should be brief with a greater focus on how the results were achieved in accordance with the above, therefore demonstrating their reliability. Papers must be referred to using authors names. 1600 50 Translation to Discuss how the conclusions drawn from the review might contribute to the clinical effectiveness agenda in the workplace, highlighting any professional & sustainability-related issues. Discussion must refer to relevant models or frameworks (PARiHS, etc). 800 20 Conclusion Develop overall conclusion relevant to issues identified and recommendations for future research. No new topics should be introduced here. 300 10 References Harvard referencing system (Cite them Right) Ensure references in text and in final list are accurate and correctly formatted Not included in word count Mandatory component Appendices (i) PRISMA flow diagram (ii) Summary table identifying all research papers used for critical review Please note: you may include others if justified up to a maximum of 5. Not included in word count Mandatory component You have chosen an interesting topic but unfortunately the limitations within the work have resulted in a refer on this occasion. – Limited analysis or synthesis and poorly developed argument. The work is heavily dominated by description. You frequently identify key points but there is little in the way of context or supporting reference to best demonstrate your understanding. For instance you repeatedly state that an approach or design was appropriate, why? how? You mention that there were ‘no deviations from the standard design’ explain? How have you concluded that results were adequately described and analysed? What is an inverse variance heterogeneity model? -Safe practice (described). – Restricted range and understanding of underpinning theory. It is absolutely essential that you engage with a greater breadth of literature to support your writing and understanding. -Structure and presentation not always clear. There are some fundamental issues with the layout and presentation of the work. Random sections of narrative are presented in italics, it is not clear why. Your PRISMA is not displayed in full. You have included multiple additional subsections. Whilst it can be appreciated that this is helpful when putting together the work, it makes the reading flow unnecessarily disjointed. It has also resulted in some duplicated discussion which is not the best use of your word count and limits opportunity to provide a more in depth appraisal of the papers. Please ensure its 3000 words please Please send drafts on the 2nd and 3rd day.Show more
