NUR400: Sampling in Action

NUR400: Sampling in Action

In this assignment, you will create a presentation that reflects on your proposed problem of interest and evaluates sampling techniques that would create a meaningful study pertaining to this problem.

Step 1: Reflect on your proposed research question or problem of interest.

Step 2: Consider different sampling techniques.

Think about how you would compare and contrast the following sampling techniques:

Consider which of these sampling techniques you might employ for your research study. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?

Step 3: Consider who your audience might be if you were to deliver your presentation in person.

  • What would you want them to know about this topic?
  • What would you expect them to already know?

Step 4: Create a 10- to 12-slide presentation that that evaluates and briefly summarizes the various sampling techniques listed in Step 2. Describe the sampling technique(s) you will use in your research and explain how your choice of sampling technique(s) will help you to create a meaningful study cohort.

Address the following questions in your presentation:

  • Who/what will your proposed sample consist of?
  • How will subjects be recruited?
  • Are there any special considerations about your population of interest that might pose barriers to obtaining a sample?
  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of the sampling method(s) you plan to use?
  • What potentials for error and bias related to sampling exist?

Step 5: Review your presentation to ensure that you are using best practices for formatting slides.

  • Include a title screen and summary screen.
  • Avoid making slides too text heavy or dense with text. As a guideline, limit text on each slide to five bullet points of six words each.
  • If using graphics, be sure that they are professional, reinforce your points, and are not used merely for decoration.
  • Be sure to add what you would say if delivering the presentation to a live audience in the notes section of each slide.

Make sure that the format of your presentation is professional and visually attractive.

Cite any sources in APA 7th edition format.

Requirements: 10- to 12-slide presentation

You willbegin by reading about the normal physiology of the organ

Nursing Question

you should come to understand the relationship between abnormal physiology and disease. So, when you are discussing a disease, you need, first of all, to have an understanding of the normal physiology of the organ or organ system that your study will concern.

Then, once you have that understanding, you will describe what pathophysiological changes occur in that organ or organ system and how these lead to the clinical expression of the disorder you are describing in your paper.

To this end, your research paper will allow you to illustrate your understanding of the relationship of normal and abnormal physiology. Your study can be of a patient with a particular disease or disorder that interests you especially, or it can be one that you learned about through your contacts with patients or even friends or family, or yourself.

You are already aware that each disease has a(sometimes, the etiology is not known), and follows a sequence of developments (pathogenesis) that reflects physiologic change (disruption of homeostasis) occurring in the patient throughout the progression of the disease. The changes that occur in the patient during the development of the disease are reflective of damages (lesions) that have been produced and that disturb normal physiology.

1. You will begin by reading about the normal physiology of the organ or system that is the topic of your paper. For this, it will be useful to study what is present in your textbook as well as what is written in the scholarly literature about the normal functioning of said organ or organ system. How does the organ or organ system contribute to maintaining homeostasis in the individual. This will constitute the INTRODUCTION section of your paper.

2. You will then discuss the disease that is the topic of your paper (e.g., diabetes mellitus, stroke, mitochondrial disorders, etc.). This part of your paper should include the pathophysiological changes that you would expect to encounter in a patient with the disorder – what is/are the clinical expression(s) of the disorder that result from the disordered physiology in a patient. What is the timeline of the clinical changes that would take place in a patient. This section of your paper should be entitled PATHOPHYSIOLOGICAL ALTERATIONS.

3. The LITERATURE CITED section of your paper will include AT LEAST 12 SCHOLARLY REFERENCES that you have CITED in your paper. DO NOT include any non-scholarly materials such as pamphlets, Internet materials that are not refereed, materials intended for the non-professional.

ALL SECTIONS OF YOUR PAPER MUST BE PROPERLY CITED ACCORDING TO APA FORMAT.

Requirements: 5 to 10 pages max

The paper should be no more than 10 pages, include 12 scientific sources, in APA style…I downloaded the requirements for you, so you can read it and get the idea what the paper should look like.
