Research Synthesis and Evidence-Based Intervention
Part 1: The Johns Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Tool
Before writing the synthesis, complete the Johns Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Tool. Enter a minimum of 10 (or more) research articles supporting the evidence-based intervention in the table, entering the correct information in each column (Appendix A in the DNP Project Manuscript Template). The completed John Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Table should be located in Appendix A in the DNP Project Manuscript Template. You may use research articles focusing on the intervention from NR730 and other previous courses. Submit the completed John Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Table with this assignment in Appendix A.
Complete the Johns Hopkins Individual Evidence Summary Tool.
Enter 10 or more research articles supporting the evidence-based intervention.
The correct information is entered in each column.

In the DNP Project Manuscript Template, begin this paragraph under the Level 2 Header: Evidence-Based Intervention.
Begin this section with the name and brief description of the evidence-based intervention.
Identify the national organization or government agency that endorses the intervention, if applicable.
Part 3: Process, Outcome, and Themes of Research Evidence
In the DNP Project Manuscript Template, begin this paragraph under the Level 2 Header: Evidence-Synthesis
Start the synthesis section with a statement of how many articles are included, and all articles should support the intervention is effective in changing your selected project outcome and related to the population for your project.
The synthesis section must include at least 10 articles supporting the intervention.
The articles must be 5 years old or less.
The sources should be evidence-based, peer-reviewed research articles.
The synthesis may include both quantitative and qualitative research studies and national standards or guidelines.
In a brief summary statement, provide the numbers of research articles that are level I, II, and III and give a summary of the quality of the research articles.
Start each theme with a Level 3 Header as formatted in the DNP Project Manuscript Template. Each theme must have its own header as indicated in the DNP Project Manuscript Template.
Identify the main themes that emerge from the sources in the level 3 headers and in the paragraph under each header, describe how the intervention was used in the research to solve the practice problem or outcome
Please Note: This is not an article-by-article review and is not an annotated Bibliography. The synthesis is a separate writing method in which the themes are identified in the research articles and each theme is discussed and the research articles supporting that themes are cited.
Explain the differences (contrast the main points) in the research articles. In the DNP Project Manuscript Template, begin this paragraph under the Level 2 Header: Contrasting Results or Themes in the Research.
Present an objective overarching synthesis of research statement supporting the evidence-based intervention.

The following reading is a report detailing the racist treatment experienced by a First Nations family in a hospital in 2015. This incident resulted in the death of 29-year-old Keegan Combes due to delayed diagnosis and clinical management of a treatable accidental poisoning.
You need to read and incorporate Keegan’s case into this reflection and tie it in. I have attached the pdf version of the case study to this as well as the link down below:
