Discussion: Observational Study
Please provide guidance for this assignment:
Identify an epidemiological observational study from the literature conducted between 2017 and 2022 ( I recommend using the search terms epidemiology and nursing in CINAHL and limiting your search by research and dates). Be sure to include a complete citation for your selected study.
Briefly describe the study design used and why you think the researchers chose the design. Evaluate the quality of the study and the potential impact on advanced practice nursing.
Questions to consider when posting your initial response and peer responses:
1. What makes the selected study an epidemiological study?
2. What design was used and why do you think the researchers chose the design?
3. How does/did "thinking epidemiologically" influence study interpretation and implications for practice?
If you selected a study based on a population outside the US, how might the results of the study influence care in the US?
