The area that I am currently working is an adult surgical unit. In this unit, most patients are post-surgery patients. These patients are at higher risk of getting DVT. There should be a DVT risk assessment tool and DVT prophylaxis should be implemented according to the risk factors. In my current health care setting, some patients are getting mechanical prophylaxis according to their surgery, but most of the patients’ needs combined mechanical and pharmacological prophylaxis according to their risk level.
So I need the evidence to prove DVT prophylaxis is needed in surgical patients
C. Create an evidence critique table (see “Sample Evidence Critique Table”).
Sample Evidence Critique Table:
Full APA citation for at least 5 sources Evidence Strength (1-7) and Evidence Hierarchy
1
2.
3.
4.
5.
Note: Evidence Strength will range from level 7 (lowest) to level 1 (highest). Evidence Hierarchy will reflect the research methodology (Expert Opinion [lowest] to Meta-Analysis [highest]).
1. Identify five sources from scholarly peer-reviewed journals, which adhere to the following standards:
a. Each source must be published within the past five years.
b. Each source must relate to the change identified in part A.
c. Each source must be listed in the table using APA format.
2. Identify the evidence strength of each chosen source, using the Strength of Evidence Table in the study plan.(please see the above table)
3. Identify the evidence hierarchy of each chosen source, using the Evidence Hierarchy Table in the study plan.
D. Develop an evidence summary based on the findings from part C that includes each of the five sources used (suggested length of 1–2 pages for all sources).
E. Recommend a specific best practice based on the evidence summary developed in part D.
