**This whole project should be regarding this !!!**
One current research problem in advanced nursing practice that interests me is how to better manage the symptom burden pediatric oncology patients experience during chemotherapy. Children going through cancer treatment commonly deal with nausea and vomiting throughout their treatment journey. In the pediatric oncology setting, I have seen how these symptoms can affect not only the child’s physical health, but also their sleep, appetite, mood, ability to participate in normal childhood activities, and even their willingness to continue treatment and I believe more research is needed on non-pharmacological interventions approaches that can improve symptom management and overall quality of life for pediatric oncology patients.
**Please all assignments should be in different documents!!! These are all different assignments that I’m mixing to get them done as soon as possible**
**Please use sources that you can find full PDF for as my professor is very strict and asks for them!!!**
**Part1**
**_The Introduction_**
Please answer the questions below.
1. What should be included in an introductory paragraph of the research paper?
2. Select an introduction from scholarly, peer-reviewed research, and appraise the introduction to assess whether it includes the necessary elements of an introduction. Why and why not?
3. How does PICOT help form a clinical question? Use Box 2.2 in your textbook to discuss population, intervention, comparison intervention, and outcome and how this process helps the student arrive at a quality clinical question.
**Submission Instructions:**
· Your initial post should be at least 500 words, formatted and cited in current APA style with support from at least 2 academic sources. Your initial post is worth 8 points.
· You should respond to at least two of your peers by extending, refuting/correcting, or adding additional nuance to their posts. Your reply posts are worth 2 points (1 point per response.)
**Part 2**
**_Literature Review & Evidence Matrix Assignment_**
For this assignment, you will prepare a 3 to 4-page review of the literature pertinent to a selected problem for healthcare research and use that review to propose a methodology to address the problem.
A. Conduct a search of the literature relevant to the problem/topic. Identify a minimum of 4 references, most of which are randomized clinical trials. Only one opinion article may be included.
B. Read the peer-reviewed articles with the focus of preparing a document that will compare and contrast the information in the articles you found. Copies of the articles used must be submitted with the final paper.
C. The reader of your literature review should be able to clearly identify the gaps in the knowledge in the problem area, as well as the purpose of the study you are proposing. The number of pages in this assignment should be no longer than 4 pages. You should be able to write enough to create an effective argument, but not so much that the result looks padded.
D. Prepare an Evidence Matrix using the template.
