Evidenced-Based Integrative Research Paper Research and develop an integrative care recommendation (s) using evidenced-based practices to write a 7-9-page paper using APA Format. • Case Overview- (1 page) Briefly describe your patient’s case using the biopsychosocial model including their risk factors (e.g., age, past medical, social and family history), clinical presentation (i.e., presenting signs and symptoms), how the condition was diagnosed and treated using traditional medical care, and the course of the illness to date. Focus specifically on a single health outcome related to the condition that is of particular concern to your patient (e.g., pain, function, survival). • Effectiveness of Traditional Medical Care and Therapy-(1-2 pages) Provide evidence for why the approach your patient has tried thus far is considered the standard of care. Be sure to cite actual clinical trials or (even better) systematic reviews of clinical trials, though there is no need to analyze their validity (in this section). If multiple interventions are commonly used for this condition (which is often the case), you may restrict yourself to the one or two most commonly used. Cite a minimum of two separate sources in this section. • Effectiveness of Integrative Care and Therapy (3-4 pages) Choose a nontraditional therapy that has been investigated for your patient’s condition and analyze the evidence, supportive and unsupportive, for its effectiveness for your patient’s condition. Using the best available clinical evidence, thoroughly justify your own conclusions (as opposed to those of the authors). This will require analyzing the internal and external validities of the studies or reviews you reference. • Final Recommendation- (2 pages) Focusing only on those interventions you investigated, recommend a course of action suitable for your patient’s circumstances. Be sure to consider not only the effectiveness of the therapies, but also their relative safety and cost. Ideally, your recommendation will be an integration of both conventional and complimentary/alternative practices. Make certain you thoroughly justify your advice based on the evidence you cited above. Cite a minimum of ten separate sources. Citations must be imbedded in the text and listed in a reference page.

Final Recommendation Recommends a course of action suitable for patient’s circumstances. Considers: -The effectiveness of the therapies -Relative safety -Cost Recommendation will be an integration of: -Conventional -Complimentary/ alternative practices. Thoroughly justifies advice based on the evidence cited. Recommendation for course of action is missing one of these elements. Considers: -The effectiveness of the therapies -Relative safety -Cost Recommendation will be an integration of: -Conventional -Complimentary/ alternative practices. Adequately justifies advice based on the evidence cited. Recommendation for course of action is missing two of these elements. Considers: -The effectiveness of the therapies -Relative safety -Cost Recommendation will be an integration of: -Conventional -Complimentary/ alternative practices. OR Justification for advice is based on minimal evidence cited. Recommendation for course of action is missing more than three elements Considers: -The effectiveness of the therapies -Relative safety -Cost Recommendation will be an integration of: -Conventional -Complimentary/ alternative practices. OR Does not justify advice based on the evidence cited. APA Style (10%) No errors in APA formatting rules (margins, spacing, font, headers, page numbering, etc.) Minimal/Minor errors in APA formatting rules (margins, spacing, font, headers, page numbering, etc.) Few errors in APA formatting rules (margins, spacing, font, headers, page numbering, etc.) Multiple errors in APA formatting rules (margins, spacing, font, headers, page numbering, etc.) Evidenced-Based Integrative Presentation The third assignment of the EBI Project is to share your findings with the class by preparing a 10-20 slide presentation, organized according to the same four subheadings (of your paper) in Blackboard Collaborate. You will have 15 minutes to present your topic. Part of your journey in graduate education is to learn to communicate effectively. This project promotes professional writing and oral communication skills. It is important to cite references on each slide and in a reference slide at the end. Your presentation will be more meaningful if it includes strategies to engage your audience.

Final Recommendation Provides substantial detail and a logical explanation of the recommended evidence-based practice based on the evidence. The recommended practice change addressed the problem/issue includes conventional and complimentary/alternative interventions Provides a logical explanation of the recommended evidence-based practice change with adequate details based on the evidence. The recommended practice change addressed the problem/issue Provides a logical explanation of the recommended evidence-based practice change with limited details based on the evidence. The recommended practice change addressed the problem/issue. Provides an explanation of the recommended evidence-based practice change with limited to no details and/or is not based on the evidence. The recommended practice change does not address the problem/issue. Professional Delivery The speaker is easy to hear and varies pace of presentation to emphasize important points appropriate to the topic/presentation. Audience is clearly engaged. The speaker is easy to hear, easy to follow, and uses appropriate presentation techniques to maintain the audiences interest based on adult learning principles It is difficult to hear presenter; pace is either too slow or too fast. Speaker has little engagement with the audience. Fails to use appropriate presentation techniques to maintain the audiences interest based on adult learning principles Presentation is disorganized. Format is unclear and poorly designed. Presenter is unprepared. I have not provided a case study as this is a breach of HIPPA and privacy. A patient for the case study can be fabricated for research paper. Please create a patient for the case study with the diagnosis of Depression.
