    SCENARIO

    For this assessment, pretend you are a member of an interdisciplinary team attempting to improve the quality and outcomes of healthcare in a vulnerable or underserved population. You should choose a population that’s of interest in the promotion of social justice, one negatively impacted by structural racism, or a population thats negatively impacted in any other way by health inequity. For the first step in your team’s work, you have decided to conduct an analysis of current position papers that address the issue and population you are considering.

    In your analysis, you will note the team’s initial views on the issue in the population as well as the views across a variety of relevant position papers. You have been tasked with finding the most current standard of care or evidenced-based practice and evaluating both the pros and cons of the issue. For the opposing viewpoints, it is important to discuss how the team could respond to encourage support. This paper will be presented to a committee of relevant stakeholders from your care setting and the community. If it receives enough support, you will be asked to create a new policy that could be enacted to improve the outcomes related to your chosen issue and target population.

    The care setting, population, and healthcare issue that you use for this assessment will be used in the other assessments in this course. Consider your choice carefully. There are two main approaches for you to take in selecting the scenario for this assessment:

    1. You may use one of the issues and populations presented in the media piece. For this approach, you may consider the population in the context of the Vila Health care setting, or translate it into the context in which you currently practice or have had recent experience.
    2. You may select a population and issue that is of interest to you and set them in the context of your current or desired future care setting. While you are free to choose any population of interest, the issue you choose should fall within one of the following broad categories:

    Genetics and genomics.

    • Sickle cell, asthma, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis.

    Immunity.

    • Type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), congenital neutropenia syndrome.

    Chronicity.

    • Arthritis, any type of cancer or lung or heart disease, obesity.

    Addiction.

    • Abuse of alcohol, prescription drugs, tobacco, illegal substances.

    Emotion and mental health.

    • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, eating disorders, psychosis.

    Note: If you choose the second option, contact your faculty to make sure that your chosen issue and population will fit within the topic areas for this course.

  • Independent samples t test assumptions and effect sizes

    550 word, double spaced, APA 7, scholarly peer-reviewed literature, 5-6 references: ESSAY: COMPARING TWO INDEPENDENT GROUPS ASSIGNMENT PROMPTS There are several assumptions for the use of an independent samples t test. State each of these and the implications should these assumptions be violated. Is it possible for a p value to equal 0? Why or why not? There are several indices on effect sizes for independent samples t tests. Describe three of these and when one might be used over the others. Next, given a situation in which a research reports a large eta squared effect size (eta squared = .64), why might their reported t value be small and not statistically significant? What may be inference from such a situation? Indicate and provide examples of three of the factors that influence the size of t.

  • Case study

    At the first 3-month maintenance appointment for Mrs. Orban, who had had a series of six sextant appointments of deep scaling and root planing with anesthesia, the tissue still showed many areas of inflammation, with probing depths over 4 mm and bleeding upon probing. She had received repeated personal instruction with each of the appointments, and she had never achieved a truly favorable score on her biofilm disclosing tests. Elta, the dental hygienist, showed her maintenance charting and oral tissue review to Dr. Finley, and they both examined the original radiographs.Elta had made two vertical bitewings for the molars at this appointment. Elta told Dr. Finley that she thought the best procedure was for Mrs. Orban to see the periodontist. “I think she will take her condition more seriously. She never acts as though she believes what I tell her” Elta said.. “She still talks as though she just came to have her teeth ‘cleaned.’” Dr. Finley agreed to recommend the periodontist, and he personally explained the treatment options to Mrs. Orban. Mrs. Orban told them she was definitely not going to the periodontist under any circumstance and asked for further treatment from Dr. Finley. 1. What ethical issues may be involved when a patient asks for the general practitioner to take over treatment that is customarily carried out by the dental hygienist? 2. Is this an ethical issue or dilemma for Dr. Finley? Explain the rationale. 3. Select terms from the core values to help in the discussion of this problem.

  • Week 6 Assignment: Body of Evidence

    Week 6 Assignment: Body of Evidence

    Submission Type: Table

    Create a body of evidence (Evaluation Table) to compare the three studies you appraised in weeks 4 and 5. See the evaluation table templates D1 and D2 (linked below) for examples.

    file:///Users/cristinaadamyan/Downloads/Appendix_D2_Synthesis_Table_Examples.pdf

    file:///Users/cristinaadamyan/Downloads/Appendix_D1_Evaluation_Table_Template.pdf

    In weeks 4 and 5, you completed the critical appraisal of three studies. This week, you will meld these studies into a synthesis upon which to base practice and standards of care. To create this synthesis, youll compare the three studies using an Evaluation Table that includes the following:

    1. Citation: Author, Date of Publication, & Title
    2. Purpose of Study
    3. Conceptual Framework
    4. Design/ Method
    5. Sample/Setting
    6. Major Variables Studied and Their Definitions
    7. Measurement of Major Variables
    8. Data Analysis
    9. Study Findings
    10. Worth to Practice:
    11. Level of Evidence
    12. Strengths/Weaknesses
    13. Feasibility
    14. Conclusion

    Your PICOT question is the driver for the evaluation table and synthesis tables. For example, with data analysis, while many statistics may be reported in a study, only those statistics that assist you in answering your clinical question should be placed in the table. Also, only the findings relevant to the clinical question should be placed in the table. Keeping the order of information placed in the table clear and simple is imperative for comparisons across studies for synthesis.

    Some suggestions to make the table user-friendly are to:

    (a) use abbreviations (e.g., RCT) with a legend for interpretation,

    (b) keep the order of the information the same in each study, and

    (c) place similar statistics in the same order in each study for easy comparison.

    Rubric:

    Citation :Author, Date of Publication, & Title: Complete and accurate citations for all three studies. Citations are in the correct format with no errors.

    Purpose of Study: Clearly and accurately describes the purpose of each study, directly relating it to the PICOT question.

    Conceptual Framework: Frameworks are clearly defined for all studies and well related to their respective purposes and designs.

    Design/Method: All study designs and methods are accurately described and appropriate for the PICOT question.

    Sample/Setting: Sample and setting are thoroughly described for each study, showing clear relevance to the research question.

    Major Variables Studied and their Definitions: Variables and their definitions are clearly listed and relevant to the PICOT question for all studies.

    Measurement of Major Variables: Measurements are accurately described and clearly relevant to the PICOT question in all studies.

    Data Analysis: Analysis methods are correctly described and clearly justified in their ability to address the PICOT question.

    Study Findings: Findings are thoroughly and accurately reported, directly addressing the PICOT question.

    Worth to Practice:(1) Level of Evidence, (2) Strengths/Weaknesses, (3) Feasibility, (4) Conclusion: (1) Correct identification and justification of evidence level. (2) Insightful analysis of strengths and weaknesses. (3) Realistic feasibility assessment. (4) Insightful conclusions directly derived from data.
