| Brief description of the aims of the research of each peer-reviewed article | The article aims to improve patient satisfaction through timely practitioner rounds in the facility (Daniels, 2016). | The article aims at exploring the mechanism for bedside reporting protocols (Ferguson & Howell, 2015). | Establishing whether checklists and standardized procedures help reduce waiting time and consequently improve office workflow (Lee, Zullo, Sobanko, & Etzkorn, 2019). | To determine and understand aspects of infusion-associated errors (Wolf & Hughes, 2019) |
| Brief description of the research methodology used Be sure to identify if the methodology used was qualitative, quantitative, or a mixed-methods approach. Be specific. | The article used the Joanna Briggs Institute’s Practical Application of Clinical Evidence Systems to achieve its objectives (Daniels, 2016). The method used was a qualitative research design.
