Select a nurse theory and describe how the underlying concepts are guiding the interventions outlined in your project idea.

Pain management in sickle cell crisis

The paper should be carefully written in a formal style, based on primary sources, provide an integration of ideas, and be no more than 5 pages in length, excluding title page, and reference list. Organized flow, logical progression of ideas, and clarity in thought are essential. Only include evidence related to this assignment and not all of the evidence you have rated since doctoral school.

As part of the background, describe the system in which the practice problem is occurring. What kind of institution (Academic hospital) is it, where is it located (Oklahoma), how many beds (500),? Describe your practice issue for us.  Why did you choose this issue? Is there a problem on your unit/in your system that really needs your focus? Has some problem resulted in negative patient outcomes?

Describe the purpose of the project, why is it important to advanced nursing practice? The purpose of the project is different from the purpose of the paper in the introduction.

Select a nurse theory and describe how the underlying concepts are guiding the interventions outlined in your project idea. For example, is it a health promotion intervention? Nola Pender’s model may be a good fit. Is it a systems change? Betty Neuman’s systems theory or Kirk Lewin’s model of change may be a good fit. Attach a copy of the model to paper.

Identify the best 3 best strategies(also called best practices or interventions…same thing) recommended to address the clinical issue is worth a good deal of points. Always look at the rubric and see where the most points are allocated and pay particular attention to that section. You can refer to clinical practice guidelines, research studies, systematic reviews…whatever the best rated evidence you have.

Choose the 3 interventions that are best supported; identify and discuss those and the supporting evidence. Tell the reader what level of evidence supports the strategies.

What tool did you use for leveling the evidence and rating the recommendations? Again, provide a synthesis or overview of the practices.

With all of the new technology we are using in and around healthcare, choose something either on the patient or the administration side that could help improve outcomes surrounding your topic, examples include apps, computer charting protocols, telehealth, mobile health, text messaging, artificial intelligence, etc.
