Introduction
Nursing or rather, the heath professional relies on Evidence-based practices. It isn't
straightforward to use EBP without research. It,therefore, means that research is basic among
healthcare professionals. However, this is not an easy task. It involves identifying, analyzing,
and synthesizing research articles to come up with a new paper (Shellenbarger, 2016). In this
assignment, there wi be a research analysis on one peer-reviewed article and provide a
summary of the report at the end.
