Breast Cancer in Hispanic Populations
Note that there is no heading that says Introduction. The paragraph or two that follows the title on the first page of your text is assumed to be your introduction. Your introduction follows the title of your paper (note that the title is not bolded). You should start your introduction with a powerful statement or two to stimulate interest. You should identify the purpose of your paper. Remember that formal papers are in third person, so no I, me, we except in specified areas. The introduction should include the purpose of the project and the Methods (Literature review). 1 page
Significance of the Practice Problem
Start this section with identification of the practice problem. This section should also answer the question “why is this important?” You should address the significance to the patient/client (e.g., pain, suffering, quality of life, impact on income potential, etc.), the family, healthcare system (e.g., impact on cost or delivery systems), and society (e.g., cost of care, need for healthcare policy). Discuss the incidence and/or prevalence and include the financial impact if possible. You might discuss the impact on length of stay, readmission, home health care requirements, disability and/or mortality. Also, you should address any quality, safety, legal, and ethical implications. This discussion must be substantiated by citations from professional literature. 1page
Research Question
Objective
1. To identify which are the determinants for a higher incidence of breast cancer in the Hispanic population compared with African Americans.
2. To establish the incidence of Breast Cancer in the Hispanic population and African Americans.
3. To analyze if those determinants are modifiable or not.
Theoretical Framework
This section should include the theoretical framework that supports your MSN Project. Describe the theory or model that served as the foundation for your project. This may be a nursing theory. KOLCABA'S THEORY OF COMFOR. 2 paragraphs
Synthesis of the Literature
Synthesize at least 15 primary research studies attached and/or systematic reviews; do not include summary articles. This section is all about the scientific evidence rather than someone else’s opinion of the evidence. Do not use secondary sources; you need to get the article, read it, and make your own decision about quality and applicability to your question even if you did find out about the study in a review of the literature. The studies that you cite in this section must relate directly to your research question. This is a synthesis rather than a study-by-study review. Address the similarities, differences, and controversies in the body of evidence. One paragraph per article (15 in total, the synthesis can be obtained from the abstract) 15 paragraphs 4PAGE
Practice Recommendations
So. . . using available evidence, what is the answer to your question? This section is for you to summarize the strength of the body of evidence (quality, quantity, and consistency), make a summary statement, and based on your conclusions drawn from the review, give a recommendation for practice change based on scientific evidence. This would logically be the intervention of your PICOT question. You might want to design an algorithm and include it in as a figure. Perhaps you found substantiation for usual practice, and you recommend reinforcement and education regarding this best practice. What you found on the articles 1PAGE

Discussion and Implications for Nursing and Healthcare
Discuss the conclusions you can make from the project evaluation results: review and answer your PICOT question. Examine, interpret, and qualify the results. Discuss internal validity and limitations of the project evaluation. Take into account sources of potential bias and other threats to internal validity, the imprecision of measures, and other limitations and weaknesses of the evaluation (adapted from APA, 2010, p. 35).
Describe the implications of your project and the project evaluation on nursing practice and healthcare. Do not overstate the significance. Identify the impact on the appropriate microsystem. Include any recommendations you have as a result of this project and project evaluation. Also, include what you might recommend with replication of this project and project evaluation and your potential next steps for this practice problem.1PAGE
Summary and Conclusion
The conclusion should start with a statement regarding the intent of the paper and your achievement toward that intention. Remember that the introduction is a preview, and this section should contain a summary. 2 PARAGRAPH
When completed your summary and conclusion, do not include a categorical conclusion, which means, that you should not mention the results of your literature review, otherwise, this would give the impression that your project has ended. It must include the importance of what has been reviewed so far, and the need to finalize the literature review in order to have a more conclusive result.
References
Remember that this is a reference list rather than a bibliography. A bibliography is everything you read to prepare the paper but a reference list is only what you cited. If there is not a citation for a reference, it should not be here. PLEASE make sure that your references here and your citations throughout the paper are in APA format. Take the time to make sure that they are correct. We have already formatted the paper for you with this template.
