(Solution) NR715 Week 3: Discussion Quantitative Article Critique

COURSE

NR715 Scientific Underpinnings-Kyzar

Purpose

The purpose of this discussion is for you to demonstrate an understanding and ability to search the library for quantitative research related to the practice problem. Use the focus of the Global Burden of Disease and National Practice Problems to guide your search for a quantitative article. From what you have learned from the Explore section choose a quantitative research article about one of the National Practice Problems. These eight National Practice Problems include: COPD, mental illness, addiction, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, obesity, and safety. You will successfully demonstrate your library search skills to identify evidence.

Instructions

Follow these guidelines when completing the assignment. Contact your course faculty if you have any questions.

  1. Conduct a search of the library to find one quantitative research article related to one of the National Practice Problems. You will use the quantitative article you have selected for your paper. The DNP-prepared nurse uses the most recent (within 5 years) evidence available.
  2. The quantitative source of evidence you select must be a single source of evidence. Systematic reviews are not permitted for this assignment.
  3. Present the written reference and the permalink to the article you chose.
  4. Attach your completed Johns Hopkins Appraisal Tool to your response.
  5. Present the method, design, aim/purpose, sample size and characteristics, research findings, share the strengths and limitations, state the research level (I, II, or III) and quality appraisal (A, B, or C).

SOLUTION

Regarding the Global Burden of Disease and National Practice Problems, I focused on understanding the intricate dynamics between heart rate variability (HRV), perceived social support, and hopelessness in adults with ischemic heart disease (IHD). The research article “Relationships Among Heart Rate Variability, Perceived Social Support, and Hopelessness in Adults with Ischemic Heart Disease” by Goodyke et al. (2024) encapsulates the essence of this investigation.…..Please click the icon below to access entire solution at $5
