Whether traumatic brain injury affect Otoacoustic emission results?
The paper should be written in" rel="nofollow">in IMRad format. Introduction, method, results and discussion.
Introduction
Outlin" rel="nofollow">ine in" rel="nofollow">in slightly greater detail the research question you in" rel="nofollow">intend to ask.
You should write a brief overview of the background to your study. Remember, you should assume the reader is completely unfamiliar with your chosen topic, so you will need to spend time ‘brin" rel="nofollow">ingin" rel="nofollow">ing them up to speed’.
The describe the current situation as you understand it – these statements should be supported by fin" rel="nofollow">indin" rel="nofollow">ings obtain" rel="nofollow">ined through a brief search of the literature.
Fin" rel="nofollow">inish this section by re-statin" rel="nofollow">ing your aims and objectives, which should comprise the practical steps by which your will in" rel="nofollow">investigate your chosen topic.
Method
In this section, you should explain" rel="nofollow">in how you are goin" rel="nofollow">ing to perform the research. This in" rel="nofollow">includes the method(s) to be used for data collection (if appropriate), or how you in" rel="nofollow">intend to perform the literature search (systematic review).
For a good mark in" rel="nofollow">in this assignment, you will be expected to discuss previous research fin" rel="nofollow">indin" rel="nofollow">ings and demonstrate how your decisions in" rel="nofollow">in constructin" rel="nofollow">ing your proposed method have been in" rel="nofollow">informed by evidence (published work).
Please consider the admin" rel="nofollow">inistrative side to your work in" rel="nofollow">in this section, i.e., in" rel="nofollow">intention to submit your proposal to your Trust’s research & development department and that ethics have been carefully considered.
Results
In the absence of actual results, you should explain" rel="nofollow">in how you in" rel="nofollow">intend to evaluate or analyse your results in" rel="nofollow">in this section. This in" rel="nofollow">includes statin" rel="nofollow">ing the type of date you in" rel="nofollow">intend to collect and the appropriate ways to manage of these data (e.g. plottin" rel="nofollow">ing, descriptive summaries, appropriate statistical tests).
If you plan to conduct a systematic review, your methods section should contain" rel="nofollow">in a draft search strategy; while your results section should give a brief summary of the numbers of ‘hits’ (journal articles identified), and an outlin" rel="nofollow">ine of them. This should not be exhaustive, but it needs to demonstrate how you might modify your draft strategy to improve its accuracy (if you take this forward, this will be undertaken durin" rel="nofollow">ing HECS3077).
Discussion
This section allows you to demonstrate knowledge of the subject and whether or not you are able to fin" rel="nofollow">ind and evaluate relevant published literature. Whilst the in" rel="nofollow">introduction provides the reader with a background to the area and briefly discusses what is currently known, you should build upon this in" rel="nofollow">information in" rel="nofollow">in your discussion by placin" rel="nofollow">ing it in" rel="nofollow">in context and comparin" rel="nofollow">ing opin" rel="nofollow">inions or fin" rel="nofollow">indin" rel="nofollow">ings between published authors.
Additional sections should in" rel="nofollow">include one which addresses Ethical considerations, and/or R&D issues. For example, if you were studyin" rel="nofollow">ing in" rel="nofollow">infection control in" rel="nofollow">in A&E and wanted to collect swabs, you would need to demonstrate you are aware of appropriate routes for raisin" rel="nofollow">ing the R&D costs to fund such work. It is only a paper exercise, but you need to show you know how you would follow it through to reality.
You should also have a Dissemin" rel="nofollow">ination section, identifyin" rel="nofollow">ing how and where you present your results to a wider audience. It is an audit, then it need to be presented to your local Dept or R&D Directorate; if it’s a piece of origin" rel="nofollow">inal research you might consider presentin" rel="nofollow">ing it to your professional body, at a local/national research forum, or a scientific conference.
