A literature review analyzes how current research supports the PICOT, as well as identifies what is known and what is not known in the evidence. Students will use the PICOT question from the earlier "PICOT Question" template and information from the "Literature Evaluation Table" assignment to develop a review.

- Introduction section (including PICOT Question)
- A summary of the purpose of the studies
- A comparison of sample populations
- A synthesis of the studies' conclusions (when looking at all of the studies together, group the conclusions by themes )
- A summary of the limitations of the studies
- A conclusion section, incorporating recommendations for further research
You are required to cite a minimum of eight peer-reviewed articles to complete this assignment. Sources must be published within the past 5 years, appropriate for the assignment criteria, and relevant to nursing practice.
