Peer’s post to discussion question #1: Simply put a medical practice problem deals with disease or a medical condition. For example, if a doctor was looking at the risks for uterine cancer for women over the age of 50 a PICOT would be: Are women who have no children at decreased risk of uterine cancer compared with women without children who are over the age of 50. This looks a specific disease and risk factors for the disease. Nursing practice problem is an issue that a nurse can lead in correcting without doctors’ orders. Nurses strive to be patients advocate and provide the best possible care to patients by following evidence-based practice guidelines. An example of a nursing practice problem would be that on an orthopedic floor there is an increase of falls with patients following knee surgery because of not wearing slipper socks. A PICOT for this would be: for post knee arthroplasty patients does the use of slipper socks reduce the risk of falls compared to regular non-slip socks. Evidence based care which is used day in and out to provide patients with the best possible care all starts from the intuition or insight of a nurse who has seen changes that need to be made to improve care. It is important that the PICOT be based on a nursing practice problem so that it stays within the nursing scope of practice to solve. Unlike medical problems which seek find and treat a disease nursing problem need to lead to safe, quality care that is paramount to advancing the nursing profession.
