2. Your oral Presentation should provide a brief overview of your systematic review by

1. • Re-stating your PICOT question
   • Identifying the relationship between the research problem and the value of your research to you as a professional
   • Stating the results of your analysis of findings, which strategy more effective, the intervention strategy, the comparison strategy, or neither and briefly explain why.

• And your presentation should introduce your peers to a nurse-sensitive quality marker, explaining the importance the measuring of this data has in assessing quality of care. The nurse-sensitive quality marker may be related to your PICOT question, may be one your unit monitors, may be one your unit could begin to monitor, or may be one of interest. Questions to address when introducing the nurse-sensitive quality marker: why is this nurse-sensitive quality marker important? does it tie to your PICOT question? if so, how? if not, why did you select this nurse-sensitive quality marker? OR is your unit monitoring nurse-sensitive quality marker? how is/would data collected? how often is/would data collected? who is part of the assessment team? what is your role as an RN in addressing a nurse-sensitive quality marker? how does or could this data impact your unit’s function? how do you see this nurse-sensitive quality marker effecting practice and/or future research?
