¶ … quality improvement, research, and evidence-based practice manuscripts," Oermann, Turner & Carman (2014) show how the Standards for Quality Improvement Reporting Excellence (SQUIRE) guidelines can be used to promote quality in healthcare. The authors first discuss the way the SQUIRE guidelines work and what they entail, showing how they are designed to promote clarity. The SQUIRE guidelines outline the findings of the research in ways that are unequivocal, while the authors also note how researchers will include the parameters of the study. Moreover, SQUIRE guidelines can help researchers to plan and outline a proposed study. The SQUIRE guidelines also dictate a recommended number of pages for the report and its component sections like the Abstract. As Oermann, Turner & Carmen (2014) point out, the SQUIRE guidelines also help researchers organize their data into presentable forms for the reader, including recommended section headers and formatting. Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion have become the industry standard for report organization thanks to the SQUIRE recommendations.
Examples like those given by Oermann, Turner & Carman (2014) like "Implementation of the Josie King Care Journal in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit" demonstrate the SQUIRE guidelines in action. The introduction provides an overview of the problem, an explanation of why the study was important or warranted, the scope of the problem in terms of general or specific statistics, and other types of background data necessary to present the results of the current study. The methods section is where the authors discuss their population sample, methods used to acquire the sample and the research design. The example used was a 16-bed unit, using qualitative methods like surveys. In the results section, the authors list either the qualitative or quantitative results in raw format. The discussion section is where the authors can analyze the importance of the results and whether those results substantiate the initial research hypothesis. Finally, the conclusion of the SQUIRE-formatted report talks about limitations of the research and provides suggestions for further research in the same subject areas.

Description of Study and Design to Be Used in Future Research ProjectTopic 1. Describe a vulnerable population in terms of research. Why the population is considered vulnerable? What other groups might also be considered vulnerable populations?A vulnerable population in terms of research is a population that is often overlooked by the academic community or a population that does not fit in with the mainstream sample. Waisel (2013) states that: �vulnerable
Topic 1 This project is a quality improvement project and not a research project because it seeks to improve the quality of care provided to diabetes patients of a particular ethnic background. The point of this project is to better enhance the approach to care that nurses use when it comes to offering health education to Asian Americans who are newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. By focusing on culturally tailored
Hypnosis in Memory Retrieval In recent years there has been a myriad of books and articles written concerning the use of hypnosis and memory retrieval. Aside from the clinical application of hypnosis in treating a variety of psychiatric disorders, hypnosis has received much news coverage concerning its use in awakening early memories of sexual abuse, and even past life therapy.

The second way is that individuals, specifically children can become desensitized to violence. This is because, daily exposure to violence may make one lose their emotional impact on them. Apparently, when one becomes emotionally numb, it becomes easier for them to engage in violence (Harding). The General Aggression Model This is a model that attempts to explain both the development of aggression an individual differences in susceptibility to the influence of
There is proper way of using Sucromates. Firstly, we need to shake it well before use. One dose accounts for 1 ml of Sucromate, which is to be injected 48 hours before desired ovulation. Sucromate Equine is a suspension of deslorelin and so with the passage of time it will settle down (Equine, pg. 9). Therefore, for this we need to warm the product for atleast 2 minutes so
Neuroscience and Human Development One of the most noticeable aspects of human beings involves the changes in shape, size, form, and function of the individual from a newly formed fetus to a fully grown adult. As the single most successful organism on Earth, human beings have developed, through millions of years of evolutionary adaptations, integrated yet malleable systems involving biological, physiological, emotional and intellectual components. This paper will review some of
