Choose a nursing intervention (examples: IV saline flush versus Heparin

Choose a nursing intervention (examples: IV saline flush versus Heparin; current trends in wound care; unrestricted visiting hours versus limited visiting in the ICU, etc.) OR a specific guideline related to your area of expertise or one that you would like to prove best evidence. Search a minimum of two sites from the below Sources of Evidence for guidelines and/or recommendations from the research for your chosen intervention.
Answer the following questions:
Present your intervention and rationale for choosing
Who are the authors of the guidelines/recommendations (or articles)? Specifically, were any nurses a part of the decision-making? How important is it to have nurses as part of evidence appraisal?
What type of evidence was considered when creating the guideline/protocol?
Summarize the quality of the evidence and strength of the recommendations.
How do these guidelines/recommendations compare to what you know and practice in your institution?
Provide a summary of support to continue with current practice or change practice related to the intervention.
Sources of Evidence:
Keiser University Online Library: Literature searches and data bases (CINAHL, OVID, PROQUEST)

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality’s (AHRQ) National Guideline Clearinghouse was defunded in 2018. Plans were in place to re-establish a new site that is still pending. However, updates will occur so I am including these two links as well.
AHRQ Clinical Guidelines and Recommendations: Information and includes links to NGC, USPSTF, and others.
AHRQ’s National Guideline Clearinghouse: A public resource for summaries of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines
Please be sure you include the guideline or article(s) related to your evidence-based practice presentation. You need a minimum of one scholarly journal article. Here are the required sources of evidence for your post:
A guideline/recommendation
A nursing journal article supporting the intervention.
And Reference from your textbook.
OR
A current, nursing journal article (preferable studies)
A second nursing journal article supporting the intervention
And Reference from your textbook.
