Completion of the literature review will also give you experience in searching, gathering, collating and synthesising literature into a cohesive format. For research stream students it will assist you in identifying a gap from current research evidence and confirm your research question for your research proposal. 4 Relevance If you select an area for observational practice or the public health study tour your literature review will focus on this specialty. Research stream can select any nursing topic they are interested in. Specialty examples: E.g… The role of the cosmetic nurse The nursing responsibilities of the operating room nurse OR you can pick a topic within the area you are interested in E.g The challenges of Emergency nursing Violence and aggression in Mental Health Nursing Public health study tour examples Public health in Indonesia (Nursing focused) The role of the nurse in a developing country (Indonesia) Cultural challenges effecting health outcomes and the implications of this on nursing The objective of the task is to give you an insight into an area that you are passionate about/interested in If you are unsure about your topic focus please contact me Some of the information from your literature review will be used in your digital presentation as introduction/background 5 Ideas Title and abstract (abstract usually completed at the end and title confirmed at the end) • The title should provide the reader with a clear indication of the focus of the review • The abstract should summarise the content and conclusion of your review • The abstract gives the reader an immediate idea of what the review is about. 6 Task Instructions part 1 Abstract Aim To examine the experiences of graduate-entry (accelerated) nursing students through a review of research-based literature. Background (NOTE---this will be the information you have used in the introduction to identify the problem,) Australian graduate-entry nursing degrees began in the mid 1990s and minimal research of these students has been undertaken. Comparatively, the United States introduced accelerated pathways in the early 1970s and a limited collection of corresponding research exists. Such courses are increasing globally and there is a need to gain a deeper understanding of student educational experiences. Methods Multiple electronic databases were searched for literature published between 1996 and 2010. Twelve studies examining accelerated nursing students’ course experiences met the criteria and were reviewed. Findings Graduate-entry nursing students revealed a matrix of course detractors and course facilitators unique to the accelerated environment. Conclusion This review identified the scarcity of research examining accelerated nursing students’ course experiences. Future research will provide a deeper understanding of factors impacting upon students undergoing accelerated nursing programs leading to registration. Such knowledge may lead to refinement of existing courses, and the development of more efficacious future programs. 7 Abstract structure Introduce your question/ issue with reference to the literature/ research and state if it has been widely researched or not. • State the purpose eg- the purpose of this literature review is to…. • Provide a rational for choosing your question 8 Task instructions Part 2:Introduction Introduction: It is well recognised that the current practice in most hospitals for the majority of surgical patients is to travel to the operating room by bed or trolley accompanied by health care personnel, usually a hospital orderly and nurse. The literature suggests that this practice is out of date; often unnecessary and if given the choice capable patients would prefer to walk to the operating room. The research also refers to the notion of all patients travelling to the operating room by trolley as a tradition based practice to which little thought has been given to the rationale behind it. The literature indicates there are several factors that contribute to a preference to walk to the operating room. The literature also suggests there are potential benefits associated with giving patients the choice to travel to the operating room on foot and knowledge of such benefits could provide opportunities for health care professionals to implement change with an evidence based approach (Turnbull et al., 1999). With this in mind and due to a personal interest in this topic the researcher chose to compile a literature review using a 12 step approach described by Kable et al. (2012). 9 Introduction example 10 1.1 Introduction: The incidence and mortality of cervical cancer has been greatly reduced due to cervical screening. However there is a growing body of research suggesting that women fail to avail of cervical screening due to various factors/barriers. The literature also suggests that having knowledge of these factors/barriers can provide opportunities for health care professionals to improve attendance (Fylan, 1998). With this in mind and due to a personal interest in this topic the researcher chose to compile a literature review to explore the factors/barriers that exist which are associated with poor uptake of cervical screening. The researcher carried out the following search strategy to inform herself of the topic. 11 OR you can write an introduction without a question but the problem is clear and supported by the research…. 12 Provide a detailed search strategy • Provide a flowchart of the process Task Instructions part 3: The search strategy and outcome 13 Example of a detailed search strategy paragraph A comprehensive literature search was conducted in August 2020 using CINAHL, Medline and PsycINFO. Appropriate truncation and BOOLEAN operators were applied to the following keywords: Operating room OR Operating theatre AND patient* walking . A Google Scholar search was also conducted to identify any existing grey literature. The reference lists of key literature retrieved were hand searched to identify any other literature that may not have been previously identified. The search was limited to English only. Content limited to quantitative, qualitative and mixed method studies original discussion articles, conference proceedings, reports and all results published from 2015 to the current year 2020 related to the preferred mode of transport to the operating room, contributing factors and the potential benefits of giving patients the choice to walk to the operating room Cont…….. -> Please note it is perfectly fine to use the search tool in the CDU library rather than individual data bases. This method is called the CDU summon. For example: A search was undertaken in the Charles Darwin University Summon search application using the following keywords with appropriate truncation and BOOLEAN operators Search Outcomes From the search of the databases 580 articles were initially identified. The Google Scholar search yielded 96 papers which met the inclusion criteria, after further review of their title and abstracts 636 were excluded. Therefore, 40 were retained for full text evaluation. Twenty-eight were excluded on further examination of setting and participants of interest. The hand searching process did not identify any additional papers making a total of twelve relevant papers. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) principles was applied, and the search set out using a PRISMA flow diagram as per figure 1 (Moher et al., 2009). 14 Boolean operator concept 15 BOOLEAN OPERATORS AND TRUNCATION REFRESHER Burnout Nurs* AND The * is the truncation meaning applying this to NURS will bring up results such as Nursing Nurses The AND will connect the concepts and the search will retrieve articles that include nurses and burnout Please ensure to register for the library session coming up in week 3 Example of a completed flow chart 16 Provide a summary table of the literature included • Introduce the themes under which you are going to discuss the literature Note it is important to introduce the table in your paper and it usually it falls under quality appraisal …. An example paragraph is seen on the next slide 17 Task Instructions part 4 Assessment and Quality appraisal was undertaken using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative research and the appropriate JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Quantitative research. Following the quality appraisal process each study was allocated an include/exclude classification based on the assessment criteria set out in the used approach. Table 1. represents this process for all studies (Lizarondo et al., 2017). Note you will find these checklists here (they are also available in the assessment area and discussion board) https://jbi.global/critical-appraisal-tools To assist with quality appraisal the following articles will assist you to identify what we must look at when we appraise the literature Step'by-step guide to critiquing research.
