Hypertension and Self-care
Hypertension and Self-care
1. Components of Paper to include:
Research Literature Support
Theoretical Framework and Change Model
Research Approach/design
Sampling
2. Identify addition literature to support selected PlCOT/PICO question. (My PICOT
question is: Is there a difference in using Orem’s self-care theory to help patients
control hypertension between 45-70 year of age?
3. What is a theoretical Framework?
Identify the theoretical framework that will be used (T he theoretical framework that
I will
use is Orem’s Self-care Theory).
Describe how the theoretical framework is used to your PlCOT/PICO question
Identify the change model and the steps/stages that are used within the model to
implement a change.
Describe how the selected change model is useful to your PlCOT/PICO question
Discuss how using a theoretical framework (Orem’s Self-care) and a change
model (My
change model PSDA) will promote success and Sustainability of the project
4. What is a change model? My change model is PSDA cycle (Plan Study, DO, Act)
Please see example below of the PSDA steps
0 Step 1: Plan-Plan the test or observation, including a plan for collecting data
0 Step 2: Do-Try out the test on a small scale
0 Step 3: Study-Set aside time to analyze the data and study the results
0 Step 4: Act-Refine the change, based on what was learned from the test
5. Research Approach and Design
Identify if the project is to use a quantitative or qualitative approach (I’m using
quantitative
approach to research design).
If it is quantitative: Identify if the design is experimental, quasi-experimental or
descriptive
Describe the selected design
Provide a rationale for selected design
Describe ONE advantage to selected design
Describe ONE disadvantage to selected design
6. Sampling
Describe the target population
Identify if the project is to use probability or nonprobability sampling
Provide a complete description of the sampling procedure including sample size
Identity TWO advantages to the selected sampling procedure
-ldentify ONE disadvantage to the selected sampling procedure
Explain how participant’s rights will be protected (i.e. confidentiality, anonymity,
protection from harm).
7. Conclusion
Provide a summary of key elements from paper
identifies expected outcomes for the project proposal based on assignment
