The purpose of this assignment is to develop a presentation for your capstone project change proposal that you will present in Topic 10 to leaders and interprofessional stakeholders at your practicum site.

Prepare a presentation using as a guide the Topic 8 “Benchmark – Capstone Project Change Proposal” that was completed previously.

Students will disseminate this presentation to leadership at the practicum site in Topic 10. Reach out to your preceptor to collaborate on confirming a date and time to present this PowerPoint to an interprofessional audience of leaders and stakeholders at the practicum site.

Prepare a 10-15-slide PowerPoint presentation of your capstone project change proposal to include the following:

1. Identify the clinical problem statement and explain the purpose of the evidence-based change proposal.
2. Summarize the evidence/literature, including connection to the proposed plan.
3. Propose an implementation plan with an intervention and outcome measures.
4. Outline the roles and responsibilities of the various interprofessional stakeholders who will be needed in order to implement the plan. Roles and responsibilities discussed should be specific to the implementation of your proposed project.
5. Describe the resources needed for project implementation.
6. Discuss the evaluation plan for proposed nursing intervention.

Provide a minimum of three references to accompany in-text citations used throughout the PowerPoint presentation.

In preparing your presentation, consider the stakeholders who will be part of your audience and ensure you incorporate appropriate messaging and communication strategies for that audience. Submit the presentation in the digital classroom for feedback from the instructor.

Title slide and reference slide are not included in the slide count. Include speaker notes below each content-related slide that represent what would be said if giving the presentation in person. Expand upon the information included in the slide and do not simply restate it. Please ensure the speaker notes include a minimum of 50-100 words per slide.

I will be appraising the article titled COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness of booster doses against delta and omicron variants over follow-up times using longitudinal meta-analysis. The study design is a longitudinal meta-analysis as it follows and analyzes data over a period of time. Introduction to quantitative research states, “Longitudinal designs gather data about subjects at more than one point in time” ( Galen College of Nursing, 2024). Researchers extracted data from eighty studies from multiple reliable databases. Analysis was performed on unvaccinated and vaccinated groups that had completed the two doses of the vaccine for delta and omicron. Eighty studies provide a large amount of data and an appropriate sampling size for a meaningful study. The Independent variable is the COVID-19 vaccine booster dose, and the dependent variable is vaccine effectiveness. The data that was surveyed came from reliable databases, and an analysis was performed by two independent researchers, with a third researcher who could be consulted if needed. The main result of the study showed a decreased effectiveness over time, as stated in COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness of booster doses against delta and omicron variants over follow-up times using longitudinal meta-analysis, “Our findings showed a tendency to decrease effectiveness over time based on outcomes and variants” (Mostafavi et al., 2024). After 20 weeks, effectiveness dropped to 93.3 percent for the delta variant. Omicron peak effectiveness was 90.8 percent by week four and dropped to 73.4 percent by week 25. I would use this study to educate patients, specifically immunocompromised patients, on the importance of yearly vaccine booster shots for protection against covid 19(Mostafavi et al., 2024).

A quantitative analysis of fidgeting in ADHD and its relation to performance and sustained attention on a cognitive task

The study employed a quantitative research design to investigate the relationship between fidgeting and cognitive performance in adults diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The sample size was adequate but not ideal for the research question. It allowed for a meaningful exploration of the relationship between fidgeting and cognitive performance in adults with ADHD. However, a larger sample would strengthen the study’s external validity. The study analyzed how the independent variable “fidgeting” related to task performance, attentional consistency, and ADHD symptom severity, which were the dependent variables. The study employed valid and reliable instruments to measure the outcomes. Actigraphy devices provide objective and reliable data on fidgeting. Structured interviews and ADHD rating scales are widely validated tools for assessing ADHD symptoms, though self-reports might introduce some bias. The study provides evidence supporting the hypothesis that physical movement during cognitive tasks may serve a functional role in helping individuals with ADHD maintain focus and cognitive control. The study reported statistical significance for its major findings, lending credibility to the relationships between fidgeting, attention regulation, cognitive performance, and ADHD symptom severity. Using the results of this study, I would apply the findings in nursing practice to improve outcomes for patients with ADHD by recognizing the potential benefits of fidgeting as a self-regulation mechanism.

Name and discuss four prevention essential health benefits for women that must be covered under the Affordable Care Act. 

For women in the age range of early adulthood describe:

• The psychosocial development.
• As a Nurse practitioner, what you think would be the most appropriate clinical education and clinical interventions you would do on a patient in that age range. Base your answer on most common normal and pathological situations women face in the mentioned age range.
• Define and give an example of Primary, Secondary and Tertiary prevention on Women’s Health.

You see a child whose family believes in natural therapy for illnesses (e.g., diet therapy, massage, heat treatments).

How will you incorporate the family’s beliefs into the treatment of a child with an acute upper respiratory infection? With leukemia?

• Your initial post should be at least 500 words, formatted and cited in current APA style with support from at least 2 academic sources.
