This chapter shows how probability trees can be used to evaluate clinical practices. After reading and listening to the support materials, please submit a short discussion of how expected outcomes of a practice can be benchmarked using severity of illness of patients in the practice. Of particular interest are the procedures to project what will happen if a different clinician were taking care of the patients within a practice.

Library Research Assignment

You have been selected by your crime lab supervisor to develop a paper on the health risks associated with processing a crime scene for his presentation to a group of fellow crime lab administrators and personnel at their yearly symposium.

He has asked that you research and review these health risks and any new state-of-the-art technologies that are under development and those that are currently available to reduce the risk of exposure to the crime scene investigator and others at the crime scene. Additionally, you are to review any pros and cons that you might see that are a part of this new technology and provide scenarios in which this new technology can be used on the typical crime scene.

Finally, you are to submit this presentation to him in paper format (no PowerPoint slides; he will do those himself). Include a short abstract at the front of the paper naming and describing each of the technologies that you found with the example scenarios you developed before doing a more thorough desrption in the body of your report on the topics.

Be sure to cite all references in APA format.

You will be using the American Psychological Association or APA formatting method for papers in nursing school. The 6th edition APA has now been out since July 2009 and this is what we will use for this assignment. You may have used another method such as MLA or Turabian for your papers in high school or in English classes. APA format is the most commonly used way of citing references and presenting papers in nursing, psychology, and many of the social sciences. In other words, you will use this many, many times before you graduate!
When you use APA or another style of formatting, you will be avoiding the dangers of plagiarism or using another\’s work or writing as your own. Serious consequences can follow if plagiarism is suspected, including failing an assignment, a course, and even being dismissed from school.
APA style manual
The APA style comes from the American Psychological Association and is contained in the book Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. The current edition, published in 2009, is the sixth edition. New editions are usually published every ten years or so. For this semeser I will accept only papers utilizing the new 6th edition format published in 2009.

The APA style required of nursing at Indiana State University is always according to the latest edition of the publication manual. You can check on the latest news from the APA at their website: http://www.apa.org.

Guidelines and information for your Topic Paper:
Attached Files:
File NMS – Koegh and Doyle.pdf (1.484 MB)
File APA Sample NMS.doc (439 KB)
This paper is short and I am looking primarily at your APA format more than the content. Be sure to focus on proper APA formatting.

Attached you will find 2 useful and necessary documents. The first is a sample paper from a student from a previous semester utilizing the 6th edition APA manual. Be sure that the format of your APA rough draft looks similar to the sample paper before submitting. The second document is a PDF file of an article from the ISU library, which you will use a reference source for your paper.

This week we will begin writing a short 1-2 page double spaced paper (not including title page or reference page) on neuroleptic malignant syndrome. The primary purpose of this assignment is to get accustomed to 6th edition APA style.

For this paper I would like you to use only the following 2 references:

1. Varcarolis and Halter, 6th edition, page 331 or Varcarolis 7th edition, page 219-220. This is your texbook and please use only this and the following document as references for you paper.

2. Koegh and Doyle (2008) Psychopharmacolgical adverse effects. I have attached the pdf file above. This article is also available from the ISU library if you would like further information.

For this APA paper, please use only these references as I am more concerned with your APA formatting than the content and I need to be sure that you only use these two references and not any additional ones so that I can make corrections based on only these two references.

Your paper topic will focus on neuroleptic malignant syndrome. As I mentioned, the paper is short. It should be at least one double spaced page and should not exceed two double spaced pages excluding the title page and the reference page. Please use only these two sources. I will deduct points if additional sources are used. Remember, the purpose of this assignment is to format and write according to the new 6th edition APA format so that you may have a template for future courses throughout this nursing program or for publication purposes in the future.

There are many good resources to help you create a properly formatted paper including the APA manual, which you should have in your possession, and the sample paper to help guide you.

This assignment will be your rough draft and will have two weeks to complete. This rough draft will be due at the end of Week 6 as indicated on the Weekly Calendar. There will be no points assigned to this assignment but you will need to submit this rough draft by the deadline for me to give feedback for the final complete assignment. Let me make this perfectly clear, if you do not submit rough draft by this deadline I will not give feedback for your final paper. Once I have given feedback on your rough draft, you will then be able to make corrections and submit your final paper which will be due at the conclusion of Week 12 as indicated on the Weekly Calendar.

Your rough draft should include the following:

1. A properly formatted title page including correct information in the header (see sample paper).

2. Your main body including a centered title on the first line of the main body. The title should be the same as the title used on your title page. The main body should be at least 1 double spaced paged and should not exceed two double spaced pages. You will need to make appropriate in text citations using the two sources indicated. Be sure both sources are used and are properly cited within the main body. (see sample paper)

3. A reference page. The reference page should include the words References centered on the top of a new page and will include your two references properly cited in APA format. (see sample paper)

Please use the included grading rubric that I will utilize to grade your final APA paper to guide you in your creation of your rough draf

Discuss some of the trade-offs involved in managing health IT that are brought out in this case study. How could these trade-offs impact delivery of care? (i.e. why do they matter?) For example, centralization versus decentralization of IT management and support? Build versus buy decisions? Allowing physicians to override EMR workflow, alerts, or protocols in an EMR versus requiring clinicians to follow best practice or evidenced-based standards. What else did you note?

Compare the IT organizational chart for the BIDMC to the examples discussed in our text. Discuss difference and similarities. How typical is the focus or custom in-house development at BIDMC? Why did BIDMC elect to take this approach? How does the focus on in-house development influence the organization of IT at BIDMC?

Consider the video/s above. Using the HACC Library Databases or Google, explore an idea and find THREE VALID ACADEMIC SOURCES. Write me ONE PARAGRAPH where you explain what was of interest to you, and BRIEFLY introduce your sources (using author\’s name and title of piece- do not quote the source). On second sheet of paper, do a Works Cited page based on the format on page 308 in your textbook. I know you are not citing these sources, but we\’re practicing how to do MLA and put together a longer list of resources. 🙂
