Substance-exposed babies born to drug-dependent moms


Case Study: Susan is a neonatal ICU nurse in a large, inner-city hospital. A fair percentage of their patients are substance-exposed babies born to drug-dependent moms. In spite of her personal beliefs about drug-dependent women parenting, she is committed to providing optimal care to both moms and their babies to try to optimize outcomes. One day, as Susan and her colleague were talking about their particularly challenging shift in the break room, they start to wonder how care providers' own attitudes and beliefs impact care. They decide to engage in an EBP project to see whether there is a body of literature around this topic. They start with creating a PICOT question to provide key words to search the databases with. Using the Meaning PICOT question template, they form the following PICOT question: How do neonatal ICU nurses (P) caring for substance-exposed babies and their moms (I) perceive the impact of their attitudes on quality of care (O) (no T [time] needed for this question)? Upon searching the literature using the key words from their PICOT question, the nurses discover a handful of articles that address their clinical inquiry. In order to decide whether the articles should be included. Need Assignment Help?
