Pharmacology Evidence-Based Practice Guideline Presentation

 Pick a medication we have studied this trimester that you will encounter in your future practice as an APRN and discuss the following information in a voice-over PowerPoint or Prezi or Kaltura presentation.

Part 1: The Drug

Discuss your specialty and future practice goalsName of medication (generic and trade names)ClassMechanism of actionIndications (common)Dosage or route (all, including peds dosing if indicated)Side effects or adverse reactionsMonitoring (labs, follow up, when to adjust dosing)Patient education, cultural considerations, special populations (pregnancy, lactation, pediatrics, hepatic/renal failure)Financial considerations. Include insurance coverage information, special programs, & average cost for the patient for a 30 or 90 day supply cash pay.

Part 2: Evidence-Based Practice

Find recently (last 5 years) published evidence-based research studies for the chosen drug AND a clinical practice guideline for your chosen medication discussing its evidence-supported use. Write a brief summary of the evidence (research studies) including indications, dosages, and any important monitoring or education related to the condition it is used to treat. Then discuss the clinical EBP guideline. The clinical practice guideline should come from a well-recognized clinical source such as the CDC, American Heart Association, American College of Nurse-Midwives, American Association of Family Physicians, American Academy of Pediatrics, Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Association, etc. Sites that are not accepted for drug information or practice guidelines: Medscape, eMedicine, Medline Plus, Healthline, Google, etc. Sources need to be a peer-reviewed academic sites or journals for your supporting references and a large clinical practice body for your EBP guideline. A recently published drug book is acceptable for one of your sources for drug information.

Be sure to include your future practice/ anticipated use of the drug, and any ethical considerations from the APRN standpoint in the use of the medication or treatment plan such as: availability, affordability, and potential pitfalls. Is the drug controversial in any way? Can everyone get it? Are there treatment alternatives or insurance hurdles (prior authorization)?

Format

APA 7th edition required for citations and referencesProfessional format for citations and referencesMay use PowerPoint, Prezi, Kaltura, or other presentation software that is easily viewable and does not require special download by facultyVoice over presentation required. Include slides as a separate submission plus presentation submissionPresent as if you were presenting to a panel of faculty (medical terminology is OK)APA Citations (in-text and reference list) requiredScholarly peer-reviewed references References must be less than five years oldImages and videos must not be copyrighted and must be cited if usedLess text on slides, use bullet points and then speak about the other important informationThis presentation should be no more than 10–15 minutes in length with at least three current, scholarly, and research-based references (not including textbook). Presentations longer than 16 minutes may be subject to penalty in grading.25 points will automatically be deducted for failure to include voice over with the presentation. Grading of content will then begin from there. 

Helpful Hints

Minimal use of quotesOnly use direct quotes where necessary to express an important point or where the exact wording is important. Otherwise, paraphrasing is preferred in academic writing. Remember even if paraphrased the ideas should be cited if they are not your original thoughts. When in doubt, cite it out. Succinct scholarly writing–don’t use 8 words when 6 will do.For presentations, use bullet points, and brief summaries on the slides. Don’t just read the slides to your audience.No excessive text on a single slide, be sure the font is readable and viewable on the background for even those with low vision (be wary of light colored text unless background is very dark).Please include notesUse correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and terminologyUse clear sentence structure, with a smooth flow of words and ideasThe files for voice over or video presentations are very large. Allow plenty of time for uploading into Canvas and once done, log out and back in to recheck that your upload was successful once completed. This can take time so be patient!
