Homework: Translational Research and Population Health Management
TOPIC: Benchmark - Part 2: Literature Review
In Part 1, you described the population and quality initiative related to your PICOT (Population/Problem, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, and Time to achieve the outcome) statement. In this homework, you will formalize your PICOT and research process.
Use the GCU Library to perform a search for peer-reviewed research articles. Find five peer-reviewed primary source translational research articles.
In a paper of 1,250 to 1,500 words, synthesize the research into a literature review. The literature review should provide an overview for the reader that illustrates the research related to your particular PICOT. Include the following:
• Introduction: Describe the clinical issue or problem you are addressing.
• Methods: Describe the criteria you used in choosing your articles

• Areas of Further Study: Analyze the evidence presented in your articles to identify what is known, unknown, and requires further study.
