Part 1: Propose a relevant nursing practice problem for an evidence-based practice project. Explain why you selected this topic and how it is relevant to advance nursing practice. Include one research article that demonstrates support for the nursing practice problem.
In mechanically ventilated ICU patients, does positioning the patient in semi-fowlers result in a lower incidence of nosocomial pneumonia when compared to the supine position?
Similar to research having shown what is the most appropriate position for certain patients and their conditions, is there truly one position to help prevent acquiring pneumonia while being intubated. I chose this topic as I will learn a lot about hospital acquired infections and ways to prevent them. I believe this will help me when I practice as an acute care nurse practitioner.
The article below gives a great explanation of both methods and their trial run on both positions with intubated patient, as well as the results that they discovered after trialing 878 participants.
