Assignment: Literature Review and Evaluation

While the implementation plan prepares students to apply their research to the problem or issue they have identified for their capstone change proposal project, the literature review enables students to map out and move into the active planning and development stages of the project.

A literature review analyzes how current research supports the PICOT, as well as identifies what is known and what is not known in the evidence. Students will use the information from the earlier PICOT Statement Paper and Literature Evaluation Table assignments to develop a 750-1,000 word review that includes the following sections:

  1. Title page
  2. Introduction section
  3. A comparison of research questions
  4. A comparison of sample populations
  5. A comparison of the limitations of the study
  6. A conclusion section, incorporating recommendations for further research

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Key Findings

 

It is imperative to empower the diabetic individual to actively participate in her or his care. This necessitates shifting away from the traditional, acute-care model to community model of health care delivery. Diabetes educators are valuable partners in the changing health care delivery models. They can apply their training and focus on change and behavioral management interventions to address the needs of patients with different conditions particularly obesity. There is a need for aggressive lifestyle changes, such as physical activity and healthy diet, which can help prevent diabetes. The incidence of Type 2 diabetes is high in individuals with low education levels. There is a need to use empowering language as this helps motivate and educate people with diabetes. Nevertheless, language that judges and shames may undermine this effort and contribute to diabetes distress.
Recommendations

 

It is critical to help diabetic individuals obtain the abilities, skills, and knowledge necessary for efficacious, sustained self-managing of the condition. It is imperative to initiate education campaigns at all societal levels to reverse the westernization trends that impede the maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. This is critical to preventing the risk of diabetes. It is important to develop public health strategies aimed at reducing socioeconomic inequalities in diabetes care. The improvement of diabetes care outcomes necessitates use of the right language in education.
Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone Project

 

This article supports EBP/Capstone project because it proposes education about obesity as a critical component of managing and preventing diabetes. The article highlights the proposed areas to be covered in the Capstone project. It supports EBP recommendations regarding diabetes management and prevention. The article focuses on diabetes prevention, which can be more effectively realized with the use of education programs. This article is critical as it provides a groundwork upon which new research on diabetes care can be carried out.
