Any topic suggestions for evidenced based paper?

Published

Hey all,

I need to write an evidenced-based paper this semester. The instructions read to choose a nursing clinical practice/skill/intervention to investigate in the clinical practice setting that is of interest to me, relevant and a potential or actual clinical problem. I need to research this in nursing journals and books.

I am very interested in psych nursing, so I would really like to have a topic related to that field but I'm having trouble coming up with a topic...any suggestions for my topic? Thanks for helping!

How about the evidence for or evidence against the effectiveness of electroconvulsive shock therapy?

I recently did my research paper on the use of restraint and seclusion on inpatient adolescent units. Many inpatients units are turning at least one quiet room into a "sensory room." It has shown marked improvements in the geriatric population and in countries outside of the US it has shown beneficial in the adult dissociative population and the adolescent population. I am in a rush right now but if you want some links to articles let me know.
