Research week 11 Discussion Question:

You are the Director of Nursing in an Oncology Unit in a large teaching medical center that is university-affiliated. You are concerned that the IV catheter insertion technique and orientation program currently being used with new registered nurses is not as effective as other methods.

1. How would you perform a systematic review of the evidence on this subject?
2. How would you design a new clinical practice guideline for the facility once the systematic review is complete?
