Systematic Reviews: Searching and Analysis of the Literature
This Assignment expands upon the work you have been conducting for this week’s Discussion.) you will conduct a search for literature on your selected practice problem. A Literature Review Matrix template will be used to identify gaps in the literature.
To prepare:
Consider the practice problem you addressed in this week’s Discussion. (You may select a new issue if necessary, but it is not recommended): Practice problem chosen: Health literacy and self-care activities, self-efficacy, and health related outcome of patients with type 2 Diabetes.
Review the guidelines in the Literature Review Matrix, included in the Learning Resources.
Formulate a research question around your issue as indicated in Part I. Then
complete Part II of the Matrix, identifying the resources you will use, search terms and criteria, and Boolean search strings.
Using the Walden Library, locate 10 articles related to your research question. At least one article must be a systematic review.
All of the articles should be primary sources. NOTE: If appropriate, you may use the four articles you reviewed for this week’s Discussion.
Actual Assignment:
Complete Part I and Part II of the Literature Review Matrix template.
Begin working on Part III.
Review Part III of the Literature Review Matrix and notice which middle range theories were used most frequently in the articles you reviewed.
Consider the appropriate use of the theoretical frameworks in each article.
Review the information on empiricism presented in Chapter 1 of Theoretical Basis for Nursing and Chapter 6 in The Practice of Nursing Research: Appraisal, Synthesis, and Generation of Evidence as you consider your response to Part IV.
Complete Part III of the Literature Review Matrix.
In your analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the existing literature, note the appropriate use of the theoretical frameworks.
Complete Part IV addressing the influence of empiricism on quantitative methodology.

Assignment:
Antimicrobial Agents
Antimicrobial agents are essential components in the treatment of various bacterial infections as they help to kill or prevent the growth of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, and protozoans. Prior to the discovery of antimicrobial agents, treatment options for patients with bacterial infections were limited. For many patients, treatment often resulted in the amputation of limbs or even death. Today, treatment options for bacterial infections typically have a more positive prognosis. Due to the various types of infections presented in patients, it is essential to be able to identify the underlying cause of the infection—whether bacterial or viral—before recommending drug treatments. This will help you identify whether or not an antimicrobial agent would be appropriate and which specific agent would target the infection. In this Assignment, you consider the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents for infections. To prepare: Review this week’s media presentation on principles of antimicrobial therapy, as well as Chapter 8 of the Arcangelo and Peterson text. Consider the categories of antimicrobial agents. Think about differences between viral and bacterial infections. Reflect on why proper identification of the infection is key to selecting the proper antimicrobial agent. Write a 2- to 3- page paper that addresses the following: Describe the categories of antimicrobial agents. Describe differences between viral and bacterial infections. Explain why proper identification of viral and bacterial infections is key to selecting the proper antimicrobial agent.
Write and post a sample “thank you” letter to the potential employer you just had an interview with.
Optimal Resume is a good resource to use when developing a “thank you” letter or utilizing letter examples.
Add a comment on how you felt about writing this letter and why it is an important addition to post-interview etiquette? You may put the sample thank you letter on a word document and submit as an attachment to the discussion post box. This sample thank you letter is one you will want to keep for future reference.
you need to evaluate a medical article, use ALL of these questions to guide your evaluation:
The student’s paper will need to include a title page, at least four pages of content, and a reference list (in APA format). The body of the paper needs to include the following:
· Summary of the introduction including the research question (RQ) to be investigated.
· Identification of research methods, participants, and statistical tests used to evaluate data. Did the methods seem appropriate for what was being studied and measured?
· Examination of the results section. What was significant or non-significant?
· Critique the discussion. Do the results support the hypothesis or answer the research question? Does the author disclose potential bias and limitations of the study? Are explanations acceptable?
· Evaluate the conclusion(s). Are they based on valid research and appropriately supported by others? Are they relevant to the professional discipline?
· How can this research be applied to your future clinical practice in respiratory care?
please stay away if you have no idea about this.
