As a researcher, you have to consider multiple factors when formulating a research question or hypothesis. Through your clinical rotation, you have been able to observe current interventions or procedures that may differ from what you have read in your textbooks or are being taught in this program. This is a dilemma because of the time it takes to translate research into practice. In pratcie, you might have likely developed clinical questions comparing the effectiveness or usefulness of certain interventions/treatments to another or the gold standard. Think of a time during your most recent clinical and your knowledge about research question and hypothesis from the assigned chapters. Respond to both by answering the questions that follow:Formulate a research question on (for example) handwashing, patient turning or prevention of the spread of COVID-19.Identify how a researcher will test these questionsState the research question as a hypothesisAs a researcher, what testable criteria will you consider for this hypotheses? use citation from your book. For part 2 of this assignment you should provide a substantive response to 2 of your peers’ post.first person to respond to ……………..1)
Sample PICOT research question.
For immobilized patients, does
turning the patient in an average hospital bed decrease pressure ulcers when
compared to using an air fluidized therapy bed in a span of 30 days?
2)
A researcher, according to LoBiondo-Wood &
Haber, 2018, could test this PICOT
question by having the right equipment, participants, time, and evaluators. The
researcher would need to have at a minimum an average hospital bed, an air
fluidized therapy bed, around 30 patients in total with pressure ulcers, some evaluators
to check on the size of the pressure ulcers and 30 days. The researcher would
also need to make sure the pressure ulcers were measured accurately before the
experiment started. The data could be altered if the patients had different
medications and therapies (LoBiondo-Wood & Haber, 2018).
3)
Research question as a hypothesis
If patients use an air fluidized therapy
bed instead of using an average hospital bed, then that would decrease pressure
ulcers for them.
4)
As a researcher, there are some testable
criteria I would consider for this hypothesis. According to LoBiondo-Wood &
Haber, 2018, one is to make sure that the results can either be proved to be
true or false. It is ok if the hypothesis is not right, or the results are not
favorable. The hypothesis and/or the study can change at a different time.
Another testable criteria would be to make sure that someone else can repeat
the study and get the same results. The study is like a recipe. If one
ingredient is changed, then the dish is changed. Same idea applies here. If one
step is changed, then the data will also be changed. Also, the study should be
ethical and be consistent with current data and research of that topic (LoBiondo-Wood
& Haber, 2018).

turning and repositioning- Pressure injuries continues to impact and
estimated 2.5 million patient each year in the United States. While some
of these pressure injures are avoidable, most can be prevented and an
effective way to prevent a pressure injury is by moving , turning and
changing position frequently. The current accepted guide line for care
is to turn patients every two hours. The frequency of turns should be
individualized by patients. (shield healthcare, 2015). Identify how a researcher will test these questions Resent
research has describe cueing innovations to ensure consistent care
delivery in turning and reposition of patients. (Roberts et al., 2016)State the research question as a hypothesis Turning our patients every 2hours or every so often to avoid skin breakdown.As a researcher, what testable criteria will you consider for this hypotheses? researchers
found that older adults turned every 2 to 3 hours had fewer ulcers.
This landmark nursing study created the gold standard of turning
patients at least every 2 hours. Some researchers would suggest that
critically ill patients should be turned more often. (Lyder,2020) References: Roberts, S., McInnes, E., Wallis, M., Bucknall, T., Banks, M., & Chaboyer, W. (2016, November 21).
