practice problem is Medication errors

Compose a PICO-format clinical question related to your topic of choice (practice problem-medication errors).

The PICO question should identify population (P), intervention (I), comparison (C), intervention (I), and outcome (O). You will likely not have a T for these assignments – timing, as you are describing an evidence-based practice intervention rather than setting up research.
Briefly describe each section of your PICO question.

1. Population/Problem

Describe the population by age, gender, diagnosis, personal habit, procedure, etc. Remember that this is the population that most closely matches the population where you would conduct your EBP change but not so specifically like that population that you cannot find that population in the scientific literature related to your problem and intervention.
2. Intervention

Describe the intervention being investigated as a possible means to achieve the outcome. Be thorough and include citations that support this intervention for your selected practice problem.

3. Comparison

Describe the comparison. If the comparison is the usual treatment, describe what that usual treatment is and include citations to support that it is the usual treatment.
4. Outcome
* Describe the outcome. It should be measurable since you will need to describe how you are going to measure it in your evaluation plan. If you know of a tool to measure the outcome, briefly describe it here. Again, citations are necessary.
