• Recommendations: • What recommendations can be made for clinical practice surrounding your question or issue? • Does it require further research? Sometimes reading through the limitations and exclusions criteria of articles helps. • Think of the ways for providing education and developing policy and procedures.
• Implementation of results: • Discuss how the literature you have reviewed, and recommendations made can be implemented in practice. Always remember to link in to your question or issue. • Based on the answers you have got from the literature are there any implications for practice? This could be positive or negative implications.
