Greetings!

 

The PICOT Team prays this communication finds you doing well.  At this time, your review of your PICOT-D  is not approved. While some components are present, this cannot be approved for the highlighted reason below:

 

· You do not have the appropriate research articles to support your intervention.

· You do not have a properly formulated PICOT.

· You have not called out the translation of research, the clinical practice guidelines, or evidence-based agencies criteria you are implementing.

 

To gain approval, you must have met all the criteria.  At this time, you need to meet one-on-one with your faculty as the criteria to move past DNP-820A is an approved PICOT.
