    Research questions

    Possible sources
     Experience
     Medical literature
     Local statistics (mortality, morbidity)
     Scientific gatherings
     Conferences
     Challenging clinical or healthcare management problems
     Casual conversations with friends, colleagues
     Skeptical attitude
    Important questions to ask

    Introduction – Why I did the research


     What is the topic? (background)
     What has been known about the topic? (review of related literature)
     What is not yet known about the topic? (research question)
     What will healthcare be if it will be known? (significance)
     What will my study do? (objectives)
    The rest

    Methodology – What I did


     replicability
    Results – What I found out
     new knowledge generated
    Discussion – What it might mean
     relation to knowledge base
     recommendations
     conclusions
    FAQs

    What are the parts of a proposal?


    Is there any other research format?
    Can we have a workshop for everyone in the department?
    Do I need a statistician?
    Do I need an adviser/research consultant?
    Do I need Ethics Committee clearance?
    Can I write the (dummy) abstract first?
    Can I collect data first, then write everything later?
    What is the sample size that I need for my study?
    Prospective versus retrospective data collection?
    Why is winning a research contest not tantamount to having
    undergone an HRC Research Review Process?
    HRC Research Review Joining a research contest
    Process and winning a prize
    1- Review 1- Review
    2- Feedback: what’s good, 2- Feedback: what’s good,
    what should be changed and what should be changed and
    what should be taken out what should be taken out.
    3- System to ensure that
    changes are carried out.

    The HRC stands on its own set of standards for assessing


    research papers, and is not accountable to other sets of
    standards.
